GR Lions Luncheon Mtg – Scott Brady, Future of the Eyeglass Recycling Center
February 20 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
Presentation: Scott Brady-The future of Eyeglass Recycling
GR Lions have sponsored the eyeglass recycling center (2008) for 16 years from the Muskegon Northside Lions Club. While we have managed the center, there have been 18 mission trips (Muskegon 12 totaling 40) GR Lions have done 30,981 exams, referred 2750 patients out. We have been in Brent Spoelstra’s garage, then to Jim Kaiser’s building, then we thought we had a forever spot behind 616 Photography. We shipped everything over and COVID hit. Shut us down. We just started to get it going. However, we are getting old and our members are tired of working at the center so we are looking for another club to take it over. Then the 616 building got sold. We have to be out! Rockford will handle all the eyeglass recycling but Gary Anderson will still be handling the mission trips.
