We had a great visit to mid-state New York with District Governor Scott and Stacy Renner. At the Melvin Jones Awards and Robert Uplinger dinner, I had the honor of meeting PID Bob Seibert.
We visited the Harrison Eye Clinic, under the inspired leadership of Dr. Haepner. Over 14,000 patient eyecare visits a year happen because of the support of the 20-Y1 Lions.

Then we saw the most fantastic eye research I have ever seen at the Upstate University Eye Research facility. This is also heavily supported by Lions. Currently, there are seven separate projects working on regenerating tissue in the retina which will lead to the solution of some of our most debilitating eye conditions like macular degeneration. Some earth shaking results will be coming out of this research within the next ten years.There was a Cabinet meeting on Sunday. Governor Scott does a pushup for every meeting he attends as Governor as is now up to 24 pushups. He will be the strongest, most fit Governor in our Association this year!! I met some new Lions friends in VDGs Joe and Doug, CST Sue, Lion Max, Lion Wayne and great mentors in PDG Dr. Kerry and PDG Stan. It was also great to spend some time with old friends PDG Dr. Paul Weber and Wendy. Cooperstown next time.......
