Although I intend to keep the bulletin basically the same as before, I am implementing several changes. The complete calendar, classifieds, and the electronic version are examples of some of the changes. Since this is your bulletin and you know better what you want in the bulletin, suggestions for change and the submission of the kind of articles you want to see will be your responsibility. I will listen to all ideas and adopt some but I make no guarantees.

There is a place in the calendar and/or the classifieds for your club and district activities and fund raisers. Conventions, Anniversaries, Multiple District Committee Meetings, etc. will all find a place in the calendar as well. The Hearing Van schedule is also included. The size of the calendar and classified sections will vary depending upon space available in the mailed version of the Missouri Lion while complete versions will appear in the electronic version.

With all the mention of the electronic version of the bulletin maybe I should elaborate. This version is presently available on the internet at the URL http://www.rollanet.org/~rlions/molions/. Each issue will start on the day after the publication date of the paper version ie. October 1 and cutoff on the publication of the issue. It will contain all articles that appear in the paper version usually in a more complete form complete with color pictures. The calendar will be in its complete form and be continually updated even in the past issues.

Let me know what you think good or bad. Now on with the first issue of Volume #2.
