We are asked regularly if we are adding electronic pull-tabs to our charitable gambling sites. Our Gambling Manager and Audit Committee are always evaluating our opportunities. So far, the expense of adding e-tabs appears greater than the benefit to the club.

As the regulators continue working the kinks out of the rules, and as competition between electronic vendors increases, the financial balance may shift. If and when we do try e-tabs at any of our sites, we’ll make sure everyone knows about it!

Our 45th annual gala is set for Wednesday, March 20th. Social hour starts at 6pm, dinner at 7pm.

Contact your favorite Lion for tickets.

Dinner for two at Jax Cafe is $100, and one entry in our $2500 Grand Prize
raffle is $50.

The Northeast Lions volunteer to deliver meals for Eastside Meals on Wheels three days each month. Our days are the first Monday and the fourth Monday and Tuesday.

It’s that time of year!

The Northeast Lions are selling tins of delicious nuts to raise money for local charities. You can download an order form (PDF or JPG), or get one from your favorite NE Lion.

They’re great hostess gifts or a tasty way to thank clients and employees. Choose from Jumbo Cashews, Deluxe Mixed Nuts, Chocolate-covered Almonds, or Buttercrunch Popcorn.

Our nuts are so good and fresh this year, you might want to order extra!

$12 per one-pound decorative tin of nuts or 2-pack of irresistible carmelcorn.

Our Club used charitable gambling proceeds to sponsor the Northeast Ride.

The Northeast Ride, slated for June 2, 2012, will take cyclists on a tour of Northeast Minneapolis, stopping at one of each of the neighborhoods’ parks. The ride will also take participants through the arts district, touring past the great Northeast creative buildings and historical landmarks like the Casket Arts Building and the Grain Belt Brewery, while using some of the new bike trails and bikeways.

The event was a great success, thanks to the efforts of the Northeast CDC (with a tip of the hat to perfect weather). Here’s a video of the ride:

Let’s see more Lions representing our Club and our community at next year’s ride!
