Lions Tootsie Pop Days

Deborah Vance, left, and Mary Catherine Carter, are promoting the Lions Tootsie Pop Days set for Friday, May 6, and Saturday, May 7. On those days, thousands of Lions and Lionesses throughout the state will give away tootsie pops and accept donations in support of those with vision and hearing problems to help them lead fuller lives. Funds raised through Tootsie Pop Days help the community through local humanitarian service projects and throughout the state in such sight-saving and sight conservation projects as Camp Lions for Blind and Deaf Children, Eye Donor Registry, glaucoma and hearing aid bank and many others. Locally, representatives will be located at Dave's Supermarket in Fairbury.
