SUMMARY:GR Lions Luncheon Mtg - University Club at GVSU\, Dr. Nicole Caiin
DESCRIPTION:Our guest speaker will be Dr. Nicole Cain. \nPlease come by 12:00 pm BUT RSVP to Cheryl no later than Sept 30 at 10 am!!!! \nProposed topic: Do you struggle with brain fog\, hair loss\, or difficulty keeping muscle\, and wonder if your hormones are to blame? Maybe you’ve done self-assessment checklists and suspect a thyroid issue\, but your doctor only ran a TSH and said all is normal. Here’s the reality: it’s possible to have a thyroid imbalance even if your TSH is ‘normal.’ You don’t have to be a doctor or holistic specialist to understand and support your thyroid. As people in business\, our health\, endurance\, and resilience impacts our ability to show up both personally and professionally! In this 20 minute talk\, you’ll get straightforward\, research-backed\, practical strategies for real thyroid health. You will learn why TSH is just one piece of the puzzle\, what deeper thyroid tests tell you\, and how small\, manageable changes can powerfully boost your energy and confidence.\n\n

SUMMARY:GR Lions Luncheon - Silent Observer-(COVID) Scott Brady\, Future of the Eyeglass Recycling Center
DESCRIPTION:Presentation:  Scott Brady-The future of Eyeglass Recycling \nGR Lions have sponsored the eyeglass recycling center (2008) for 16 years from the Muskegon Northside Lions Club.  While we have managed the center\, there have been 18 mission trips (Muskegon 12 totaling 40)  GR Lions have done 30\,981 exams\,  referred 2750 patients out.  We have been in Brent Spoelstra’s garage\, then to Jim Kaiser’s building\, then we thought we had a forever spot behind 616 Photography.  We shipped everything over and COVID hit.  Shut us down. We just started to get it going.  However\, we are getting old and our members are tired of working at the center so we are looking for another club to take it over.  Then the 616 building got sold. We have to be out!  Rockford will handle all the eyeglass recycling but Gary Anderson will still be handling the mission trips. \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:GR Lions Luncheon Mtg - Scott Brady\, Future of the Eyeglass Recycling Center
DESCRIPTION:Presentation:  Scott Brady-The future of Eyeglass Recycling \nGR Lions have sponsored the eyeglass recycling center (2008) for 16 years from the Muskegon Northside Lions Club.  While we have managed the center\, there have been 18 mission trips (Muskegon 12 totaling 40)  GR Lions have done 30\,981 exams\,  referred 2750 patients out.  We have been in Brent Spoelstra’s garage\, then to Jim Kaiser’s building\, then we thought we had a forever spot behind 616 Photography.  We shipped everything over and COVID hit.  Shut us down. We just started to get it going.  However\, we are getting old and our members are tired of working at the center so we are looking for another club to take it over.  Then the 616 building got sold. We have to be out!  Rockford will handle all the eyeglass recycling but Gary Anderson will still be handling the mission trips.
