Thanks to those who attended the 2024 Oklahoma Lions State Convention at St. Crispin's Conference Center. Lots of great speakers and information, and great chance to see old friends and make new ones, as well as exchange information. We were honored to welcome our 3rd International Vice President Mark Lyon to the convention. And if you were there you got to hear the groovin' sounds of NASTY WEATHER (nastyweatherband.com) performing at the Saturday night banquet!
