Vermillion Lions Club recognized

The efforts of the Vermillion Lions Club to provide a meal of pancakes at the interstate rest area east of Vermillion for travelers during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally was featured in the May issue of LION magazine.

The Vermillion Lions Club was very recently featured in the May issue of LION, the organization's international magazine. The article called "Pancakes for Preservation" explained the Club's Traveler/Biker Breakfast held each August during the motorcycle rally in Sturgis. The event is held at the I-29 rest area just 8 miles east of Vermillion, in hopes of attracting traffic off the interstate during the rally.

The story continued by stating how this annual event supports the W. H. Over Museum, the oldest museum in the state. While the Vermillion Lions Club serves a pancake breakfast for three days during the event, their year round volunteering helps support the needs of their local community on a continuing basis for over 60 years.
