The work consisted of cutting bases, branding Lions Emblems on wood, and sanding smooth. They produced 367 bases which will hold the flags donated to First graders..

Havre Lions’ President Russ Stinnett presented a check for $500 to MSU Northern Sweet Grass Society to help support their 49th Annual Pow Wow.
