The Kenton Lions Club held its regular meeting recently at the Kenton Elks.

Lion Bill Keller read a letter from Connie Downing, a former Kenton resident, who thanked the Kenton Lions Club for the improvements in Pioneer Park and gave a donation of $2,000.

Lion President Jason Van Buskirk gave an update of all the things the Kenton Lions Club does through the year such as service hours, fundraisers, donations to other local charities and community projects.

The highlight of the meeting was presenting Lion Aaron Osborn with a Melvin Jones Fellow.

The Melvin Jones Fellow is the highest recognition given to a Lion for their service to Lions Clubs International.

The 50/50 was won by Roberta Whitmer, and she donated the winnings back to the club.
