First reports say Fish Fry a success...

Lion Phil Benedict and president Anne Elstro greet customers

With the 32nd Annual Fish Fry under our belts, officers are looking at the financial receipts to indicate how successful it was.  Treasurer Kevin Sparks, in initialreports, says income should be above $5,000 for the two-day event.

It was held at the Christian Church Family Center because the Centerville City Building garage area was not available  this year.  Although the facility afforded customers air conditioning from the hot summer-like heat, some said there was not enough visibility to the public.  And some suggested the Fish Fry should return to the second weekend of the month in the future.

This year an $8.50 ticket included the entire meal, drink and dessert.  Proceeds from the Fish Fry are used for club projects throughout the year.

A couple of members of the Indiana Thunder, a baseball team featuring blind players, visited the Centerville Lions Club Monday evening, January 10.  The team was formed ten years ago as a recreational sport for the blind and visually impaired adults.

Loosely based on softball rules, a blindfolded player hits a beeping ball and runs to either one of two bases.  If the player in the field finds the ball before the batter reaches the base an "out" is recorded, otherwise, the batter scores a run.

Each season, they play in tournaments against teams from across the Midwest including Chicago, Cleveland, and Columbus.  They host their own annual Indy Thunder Tournament at Broad Ripple Park.  This year the World Series will be in Indianapolis July 31 to August 7.  They expect 20 teams to be present, some as far away as Thailand.

The Moore's received their eleventh puppy on Sunday, September 19. It's a nine-month old chocolate lab named Banner.
 
 
Typically puppy raisers raise the puppies from about 6 weeks old through 12-14 months, at which time the dog is returned to Leader Dogs for advanced training.  Not all puppy raisers can keep a dog for a year.  Lately the Moore's have been specializing in finishing older puppies (5-12 months).  Mason was one of the older puppies they finished this past winter.  You might remember him at meetings during the winter of 2010.  They have raised 10 puppies for Leader Dogs for the Blind.
