One phenomenol Lion

 

Our amazing Karl Ostheller received this award for being a "Phenomenal Lion" from President David Damazo at a recent meeting. Karl is most noted for work with the area Leo Clubs, but he's involved in so many other Lion projects, including Salmon Days and Fish Park.

NK High Leos help with Wreaths Across America at Poulsbo cemetery

 

The North Kitsap High School Leo Club assisted the American Legion in its Wreaths Across America event today. Lion Linda Schwind organized this community event, which saw 10 Leos and 3 Leo alumni help first with setting up, then with laying the wreaths on veterans graves. The Leo Club also assisted by purchasing 5 wreaths for this event.
