Because of the important mission of Camp Crescendo our club will continue to support their efforts to serve the disadvantaged in our communities. With the help of VisionWorks LLC we are currently planning a festival in Crestwood for Sept 9th and 10th on the the Maples property on Hwy 22 just west of Dairy Queen. We are going to use money made at our Crestwood Festival to help keep Lions Camp Crescendo available to local disadvantaged youth.
Help us reach our goal by supporting our Crestwood Festival!
