Throw for Sight 2022 Cornhole Tourney a success!

Posted on November 15, 2022 by Administrator

We rebranded our November “Chiller in Cheyenne” cornhole tournament and fundraiser to “Throw for Sight.” This puts our signature fundraiser in line with the Sunrise Lions’ “Ride for Sight” and the Frontier Club’s “Shoot for Sight.”

As has been the case in the past, the director of our tournament was Paul Lopez of the Chey-town Cornhole League, and the Chey-town league members as usual turned out for the fun!

Sixteen teams vied at the Throw for Sight cornhole tournament!

Entry fees, divided 50-50, allowed us to give prize money to first, second and third finishers in the recreational and competitive divisions. Finishers were also presented with plaques honoring their achievement.

Entry fees, a 50-50 raffle, and a raffle for a Wicked Ridge crossbow from Cabela’s, plus the sale of “mulligans,” totaled up to $1,006 for the Noon Lions!

All funds will be divided between the Lions Clubs Vision Committee – helping needy residents of Larame County to obtain eye exams and eye glasses, and the Diabetes Awareness Committee – bringing awareness of diabetes to the Laramie County community.

Service project for April – Lions Park Cleanup

Posted on March 9, 2022 by Administrator

Our service project for April 2022 will be to help celebrate Earth Day by spending a couple of hours cleaning up Lions Park.

We’ll rendezvous in front of the Scout Lodge, put on our bright yellow vests, and take our pick-up-sticks and head out on the trail that runs around Sloan Lake.
