Lambton SC

The Lambton Shrine Club Motor Corps, are always
well known for their colorful antics, and skillful maneuvering
of their Mini Cars, at various Parades. Many
spectators line the streets at every Parade, hoping to
catch a glimpse of the Motor Corps going through the
routine of "Mad Cap" driving. These guys are of course
one of the favorites of the children, as witnessed by the
pointing, and laughing.
Parades are not the only area of dedication, and we take
part in many Fund raising projects for the Shrine, and
donate to the local Community as well.
On Wed. May 11th. the Club donated their time at the
CLUB NEWS
local McDonalds on Exmouth St., selling Balloons,
French Fries, and collecting donations from various
customers. After the events the Club donated
$ 1,000.00 to Ronald McDonald House, and any monies
collected that day went to McDonald House, and the
Dow Center for Youth.
Later that same day we visited St. Joseph Hospice,
where we met with Mr. Bob Murray, and a further
$ 1,000.00 was donated to them the Hospice. Mr.
Murray thanked us immensely, and said the daily cost
of running the Hospice is around $ 3,000.00 per day.
Following that busy day we still had time to attend the
Monthly Meeting and prepare for the upcoming
events.
Dedicated Nobles indeed.
