Oak Ridge Lions – Secret City Festival on 6/19/09

Looking for Business at the Secret City Festival

It was hot, hot, hot at the Secret City Festival! I was able to find the Oak Ridge Lions booth where I met Lions Joe Henderson and Jim Bailey selling mops, brooms, light-bulbs, and pecans.

Visit the Oak Ridge Lions Club web site!

I’m not much use in handling cash or lots of products with my paws, so the best I could do was help generate interest to the booth.

My sign was handy as I walked through the festival with Lion Joe.

However, I really need free paws for waving, high fives, and hugs, so Lion Joe ended up being the walking billboard for the booth while I had most of the fun!

Lion Joe was also able to take some terrific photos that he shared with me.

Only a couple are on this post, so check out the entire Secret City Festival photo album here!

A Lion Hunting

A nearby vendor had these cool hand-made guns and a shooting range right there at his booth! He offered to give me a running head start before hunting me; but what’s more interesting: going Lion hunting or a Lion going hunting?

Ha! Despite my limited visibility, I was still able to hit the target for 2 of 4 shots! All the big game hunters better look out for Lions’ Revenge!

Lions may be the “King of the Jungle” but the bald eagle is one of the most majestic creatures I’ve ever seen. I was definitely in awe, and Lion Joe captured the beauty of this bird magnificently!

I’m sure there will be even more people mingling around the festival on Saturday, which is a great opportunity to raise awareness about Lionism.

But I’ve got other plans tomorrow. . . so much to do! I don’t know how many sales the Oak Ridge Lions Club was able to make, but definitely another fun outing for me!

Keeping Roaring!
