We have a few secrets about how the Slaton Lions Club  is able to stay active and enjoy being able to serve. Some of the other posts in this web site might give you a clue but the real issue is that this daunting spirit was instilled in some folks hundreds of years ago. Our forefathers and ancestors had this unrelenting drive much like instinct and maybe even our gene makeup in which they used different words and actions to explain things so that others can understand. For example: REMEBER THE ALAMO’S famous phrase where Colonel Travis drew a line in the sand and asked that to step across the line is  to stay…

The result is WE DARE TO STEP FORWARD, maybe one at a time, maybe more and then more ideas are instilled in our minds which means we have a good core of people.
