Fallsburg Lions Club Awards Dinner

Posted

FALLSBURG — For the past 70 years, the Fallsburg Lions Club has been having an Awards Dinner to present achievement awards to deserving high school graduates and citizenship awards to students moving up from Benjamin Cosor Elementary School to the Jr/Sr High School. The three seniors receiving this year’s awards were Kyle Tremper, son of Cheryl and Aaron Tremper of Woodridge, Jonathan Espinoza, son of Jeannette and Edgar Espinoza of Woodridge, and Nabiha ShahJahan, daughter of Mirza ShahJahan and Baig Farkhands Gegum of Woodbourne.

Brittany Reyes Serrano and Eriberto Gonzalez, Jr., sixth grade graduates from South Fallsburg, received Citizenship Awards earlier in June at the BCES moving up celebration. Lion Member and FHS Guidance Counselor, Joe Levner, presented the Achievement Awards. Tim Pantel chaired the Achievement Award Committee composed of members Joe Levner, Renee Kates, Cathy Castillo, and the late Steve Lippen,

At the dinner, outgoing President Nathan Steingart presented a monetary contribution to Hospice of Orange and Sullivan. Following the Achievement Awards, Lions Past District Governor Jim Eggleton inducted new members and installed new Officers of the Fallsburg Chapter. Incoming President Rebecca Pratt closed the Awards Dinner and stated that it was an honor to be President of the Fallsburg Lions. Her life has been about service and what she loves about service is “how it opens our hearts.” She then held her hand over heart and said, “I love that we are Lions…everyone here has a lion’s heart.”

If anyone is interested in becoming a Fallsburg Lions, please contact Membership Chair Nathan Steingart at (845) 434-4321.
