The Houghton Hancock Lions Club had a really fun Christmas Party last night. Members were asked to bring in canned goods to donate to the Salvation Army.

We hope to see you in January for a fresh start. We all have hopes of helping our community even a little bit more this next year.

Happy Holidays!!

Hello all,

Our monthly meeting was held on November 8th at the Copper Range Depot. Our guest speaker was Connie Julien. She presented an informative talk about North Country Trails. Our business meeting was held where we decided that Little Brothers would receive the major donation for 2022. Other recipients include Barbara Kettle Gundlach, SKY, Habitat for Humanity, 31 Backpacks, Omega House and Salvation Army.

The Salvation Army bell ringing will be done by the club on November 26.

A new member Penny Niemi was welcomed.

Next meeting will be December 13th for our Christmas celebration including guests, gift exchange and a can drive.
