Mark Your Calendar – A Great Meal for a Great Cause
The Peru Lions Club is holding its 15th annual Election Day Spaghetti Dinner on Tuesday, November 8th 2016 at the Peru Community Church Fellowship Center where it has been held in for the past 14 years. We have had an average attendance between 160 and 200 people. This year Peru Central music students will entertain.
The Lion’s primary goal is sight related and supports those in need of visual assistance. The money that is raised from this event helps many local individuals with eyesight issues. However, providing eyeglasses is just one of the many things that our club does for the community. We continue to perform vision screenings to preschool children (The Lions SEE program), support of the Clinton County Christmas Bureau, Peru Boy and Girl Scouts, The Peru Youth Commission, Hospice of the North Country, ALS, Literacy Volunteers of the North Country, North County Honor Flight, Camp Ta-Kum-Ta (a camp for children with cancer), CVPH, the JCEO/Outreach food shelf, Peru and Keeseville Libraries, North Country Association for the Visually Impaired, Guide Dog Foundations, and provide student scholarships, and other community and state projects.
