First Annual Warpath


We're glad it's over but we are so thankful for how well it went! The first annual Haskell Warpath, a 5k Fun Run/Walk, was a great success and we look forward to implement new ideas for an even better run next year. Over 60 people participated and 20-plus fulfilled their responsibilities to make for a smoothly run event. Even the weather behaved perfectly.
We appreciate the sponsors who donated money towards the T-shirts and others who donated the necessary supplies and the door prizes. We thank the policemen and firemen who controlled traffic and the friends of Lions who helped sign in participants, time runners, tag winners, hand out water, and "patrol" the streets in case of a first aid need.
The Haskell Lions Club is involved in projects that are very beneficial to our community and we are excited about possible new ways to contribute to Haskell. Proceeds from the Run will aid us in these activities.

Most importantly, THANK YOU to all the runners and walkers. We look forward to seeing you next year.

Homecoming Pancake Supper

This year's Pancakes were delicious! And, as usual, the bacon was wonderful. We served around 250 people before the Haskell Indians defeated the Quanah Indians before a large homecoming crowd. The Lions want to thank everyone who supported them by coming to eat pancakes! THANK YOU!
