Moore County Campus Lions Raised $500

Moore County Campus Lions raised $500.00 to donate to the Lions 2 T-I Eye Bank to help with their mission to provide sight saving surgery to citizens in the 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle who could otherwise afford the surgery.  Students earned this money preparing cashews, almonds and pecans last fall and selling the products. They operated the Dumas Noon Lions Bavarian Nut Wagon during the Fall Arts and Craft show at the Community Building. Two fund raisers were held on the Amarillo College Campus and a second community fund raiser was held during Candy Cane Lane. Students spent many volunteer hours cooking the nuts, packaging them and selling them. They were successful because of their dedicated work along the great Dumas community support they received. The Lions 2 T-1 Eye Bank presented the Omar Hermsmeyer Awards to the Dumas Noon Lions Club and to the Moore County Campus Lions Club for their hard work and dedication.
