The Meeker Lions Club held its first ever District 6 West Convention last weekend in Meeker for more than 145 Lions from the western slope. Lions International director Dr. Gary Anderson from Michigan attended and was the featured speaker Saturday. According to Meeker Lions Club president Anthony Mazzola, his club worked very hard to bring the convention to Meeker as a benefit for the community. Mazzola said funds were raised for the Lions Camp and for local eighth-graders going on the Washington D.C. Trip.
