To the Editor:
I would like to thank all of the people who volunteered to help with the Mattapoisett Lions Club Harbor Days Festival. A lot of time and effort goes into the planning and execution and we couldn’t do it without the help of the citizen volunteers, the Rochester Lions Club, the Fairhaven Lions Club and the Bridgewater Lions Club. A special thank you goes to the Town of Mattapoisett’s police, fire, highway, and building departments and the selectmen’s office.
The Mattapoisett Lions Club is asking for your support for our next event to be held on Friday, September 26 as part of the Movies in the Park series. This last movie of the season, Beetlejuice, will be sponsored by the Hollywood Scoop. We would like to thank our previous supporters as well: The Seaport Ice Cream Slip, the Mattapoisett Cultural Council and Check Collision.
We will also offer a French Toast Breakfast on Sunday, October 5.
Lions club members are men and women who strive to make a difference in their local community as well as in communities worldwide. Their volunteer efforts go beyond the support of vision care, to addressing unmet health and education needs worldwide.
If you would like to consider becoming a Mattapoisett Lion, please join us for dinner. Send an email to me at mattlionsclub@gmail.com.
Thank you,
Marianne DeCosta, President
