Win Big!  Find the Treasure Hidden in Star

The Star Lions Club is calling all treasure hunters!  For the past couple of weeks, the Lions Club has been dropping clues around town.  If you find an envelope with "important documents inside", you are instructed to take it to Mini or Judd at Idaho Independent Bank and turn it in for a clue.  A small donation is requested in exchange for the clue, half of which goes to the club for community projects, the other half goes into the jackpot.  Clues will continue to be dropped around town and especially during Mule Days, so keep your eyes open in the coming days.  Once you've deciphered the clues and found the silver medallion, you can redeem it for the prize money-which stands currently at over $100!  To help you get started, here are the first two clues.

Clue #1

The Lion’s have roared and made such a sound,
A treasure was hidden in Star to be found.

This clue is more rules than a clue as you look,
Don’t mess up the town or you’ll be a crook.

This will be an adventure for all to enjoy,
You will need to solve clues to find this alloy.

No tools are required to find this great treasure,
So don’t dig in the ground not even one measure.

So keep your eyes open you might just get lucky,
The next clue will arrive for someone
who’s plucky.

Clue # 2

Backwards is forward and forward is backwards,
If this is confusing let’s call it forbackwards.

New Spring Banners Displayed on State Street
    
The Star Lions recently purchased new spring banners to place on the lamp posts along State Street.  The banners will be displayed in April and throughout May until American flags line the street for Memorial Day weekend.
                  


Joe, Ancil, and Judd put up a spring banner.



 
Mule Days Country Breakfast and Raffle

The Star Lions Club completed its annual fund raising breakfast and raffle at Star Mule Days the first weekend of June.  This year's event was on June 5th and 6th.  Star Mule Days is a community event featuring breakfast, a parade, a fun run, arts, crafts, business, and food vendors, a carnival, lawn mower races, and musical entertainment.  Now in its 11th year, Mule Days celebrates Star's heritage and bright future.

The Lions Club hosted a "Country Breakfast" of biscuits and sausage gravy, scrambled eggs, French toast, coffee, juice and milk on a damp and gray Saturday morning.  The rain didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the Lions, fun runners, and others who attended, but it did keep many folks away, especially from Boise, Meridian, Eagle and other areas where the rain was falling much heavier.  Thanks to the generosity of Butch Kirtley, owner of a nearby vacant building, everyone stayed warm and dry as they ate.  Local dignitaries attending the breakfast were Governor Butch Otter and his wife Lori, Representative Walt Minnick, and Star Mayor Nathan Mitchell.
 
The Lions also held a raffle with over 40 prizes.  Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets and congratulations to all the winners!

Adopt-a-Highway Litter Clean-Up Completed

The Spring litter pick-up along Highway 16 was held Saturday morning, April 18. The Lions met at 9:00 a.m. and spent approximately 4 hours picking up 37 bags of trash along with various boards, boxes, and golf balls.  Special thanks to Wayne and Joe for picking up and returning the signs, bags, and vests and to all the crew for giving up Saturday morning for lots of walking, bending, and stooping.  The next clean-up will be held in the fall.  For more information, contact the Lions.


Next Meeting

The next meeting of the Star Lions Club is Monday, July 13 at 6:30 pm at the Star Fire Station.  Everyone is welcome to attend!
