The forum was one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> best yet. International<br />
President Al Brandel welcomed us to Saskatchewan<br />
and truly inspired us to create our projects<br />
and fundraisers so that <strong>the</strong> communities we<br />
support know who and what we are! <strong>District</strong> 4-<strong>A1</strong><br />
attendees: PDG Bob & Sue Ransom, DG Pat<br />
Casey-Gillum, RC Willie Hughes, ZC Jerry Walden,<br />
Lion Fred Bunch and Marie, and Editor Sue!<br />

historic site <strong>of</strong> Batoche, <strong>the</strong> tunnels under <strong>the</strong> city <strong>of</strong><br />
Moose Jaw, and <strong>the</strong> RCMP academy at Regina, <strong>the</strong><br />
