November 2012 - Lions Clubs of Iowa

A “Victory Party” for our state’s newly elected International Director Judy Hankom
and her husband, Ron, was held at the Community Center in Mitchellville, Iowa on
Saturday afternoon, Oct. 13. Members of Judy’s campaign committee hosted the
“open house” event. During a brief program there were spontaneous messages
of congratulations and a sharing of highlights of the campaign to elect Judy.
Some of the many Lions and friends who attended the Oct. 13 victory celebration
for ID Judy Hankom are pictured enjoying refreshments and socializing.
Four Iowa Past International Directors (PID’s) were on hand to congratulate newly
elected ID Judy Hankom, in center, at the Oct. 13 reception in her honor. PID’s
- and their ID term years - are, from left: Dave Stoufer, 2006-2008; Del Brown,
2002-2004; Gary Fry, 1995-1997; and Norm Dean, 1985-1987. The one other
living “Iowa” PID is Adrian Johnson (1976-1978), now a Minnesota resident. Judy
Hankom will serve a two year term (2012-2014) on the official governing board at
the Lions International level - the 16th Iowan to do so as an ID since 1921.
