Lions Receive Anonymous Gift

Lions Receive Anonymous Gift Bob Brastrup, Townsend Lions Club Thank-you Anonymous Donor!
One of the Broadwater County Lions major programs is assisting individuals with hearing problems. The club assists the school by screening students during the school clinic. Thanks to a generous donation by an anonymous donor, the club has purchased a new machine to replace the 40-year-old device used previously. The device arrived in time to be used at this April’s screening.
The screening only indicates if a subject has a problem hearing. If a problem is indicated, it is recommended that a hearing specialist examine the student. According to club member, Richard Heida, previous tests have revealed many children may have a hearing problem.
The Broadwater County Lions sincerely thank the anonymous donor for helping the Lions make this investment to help improve the quality of life for local students and citizens.
