At our last quarterly meeting held in Clarksville on March 7, 2009, we had a guest speaker, Dr. Mark Murphy from the Arkansas State Dental Association.  The ASDA is dedicated to improving the dental health of the public, promoting the art and science of dentistry in all its phases, and to maintain an ethical level of practice in the best interest of the public.  They are in need of volunteers, and you can find out more about this organization by visiting their website:  Arkansas State Dental Association.  Their Volunteer Registration Form is located on their website.

If you like playing computer games, and you want to help Mid-South, Lion Jennifer told us about a way that you can do both.  Sign up at I WON, and join the Mid-South team.  You'll find them listed under Member Created, Human Services, and they are listed as Mid-South Lions.  Proceeds won from these games will be donated to Mid-South Lions.
