2015 ROSE DAY REPORT

Fellow Lions,
 
I presented the (2015 Final Rose Day) report at our board and regular meeting on 11/24/2015.
 
We sold 624 dozen which is our highest sold year since 2002 and our highest net.  Congratulations to everyone who helped make this a huge success. There are many to thank but we must single out Lion Terry Anderson who sold 220 dozen all by himself and then delivered 88 dozen (with help from wife Cheryl Anderson).  Thanks Lion Terry & Cheryl!
 
SPECIAL THANKS TO:
Eastrich Printing, The Journal-Standard, Event Floral (Deb Quillen, Loves Park IL); every Lion who sold tickets, those who volunteered to deliver or be a runner; Gordy Tormohlen for use of Good People Automotive facilities & free coffee; Lions Dennis Zimmerman, Terry Anderson, Roland Caruso and Bert Kersten for helping count and sort the roses for each route from 5:40A.M. to 7:15 AM for each driver.   



Now we can look to smashing this record in 2016!  I'm looking for a co-chairman to help - if you have an interest, let me know.  We start kicking this off around June 1st.


Lion Joe Serafini
2015 Rose Day Chairman
