Mansfield Lions Contribute
to New Ambulance Fund
Ed Bourget, from the Village at Willow Crossings, was
invited to speak at the March 4th meeting of the Mansfield Lions Club to
update the members about the fund to purchase a new ambulance. Ed noted that
the fund has raised over $120,000.00 and that there is a need to
continuously raise funds to replace ambulances and equipment. Donations may
be sent to the Mansfield Ambulance Fund, Town Hall, 6 Park Row, Mansfield,
MA. The club voted to contribute $500.00 to the fund for this year.
For over 50 years the Mansfield Lions Club has sponsored numerous community
projects and scholarships, including the annual Halloween Walk and Senior
Football Players’ Dinner; and has assisted those in need within our
community. Funds raised at the annual Lions Penny Sale, and other
fundraisers, are also used to promote eye research and diabetes prevention
and cure.
The Lions meet every 2nd and 4th Thursday at the Tahana Restaurant. For
