A year ago VDG Governor Crystal and I
went to Fukuoka, Japan for my District Governor training and three days of the 99th
International Convention. From our hotel window I took a photo of the entryway which
appeared in one of the first of the You Guys Are Great blogs.
Today, I
took a similar shot, a year later, of the entry way to the hotel where we will
stay as DG Crystal takes her District Governor training prior to the 100th
International Convention of Lions in Chicago, Illinois USA.
Looking back over the 2016-2017 19F Lions
year is easy because of the You Guys Are Great DG blogs which were
written more or less weekly. We tried to make a write-up of every club for the
blogs but sometimes time, technology and fatigue got in the way of that aspiration.
The goal was to showcase how great the Lions in our 46 clubs are, to stay positive,
and to essentially be a cheerleader.
VDG Crystal and I had a wonderful time
visiting clubs, learning how they operated and how truly effective they are in
service to their communities. It was a little humbling learning how much I didn’t
know about Lionism and very exhilarating being in the presence of so many great
Lions.
Those 57 You Guys Are Great blogs
have had 5,057 page views during the year. Each
month my son Lion Derence Walk combined the best blogs of the month just passed
and made them into the required DG You Guys Are Great Newsletter. Each month we attached or linked it to the 600
or so District Lions who have emails listed in the LCI database. These same
blogs and the newsletters were also shared via our District 19F Website and
District 19F Facebook page.

Great blogs
