The Edna Lions Club recently awarded the Jack Wiech Fellowship award to Lion Mike Myers. The Jack Wiech Fellowship, established in 1994, is to pay tribute to the founder of the Texas Lions Camp, Lion Jack Wiech. This outstanding Lion organized and chartered the Camp in 1949, which was dedicated "to the perpetual use, enjoyment and rehabilitation of the crippled children of Texas". Over 65,000 Texas children with physical disabilities, Type-1 diabetes and cancer attended the one-week-long residential Camp at no cost to the parents. Lion Jack Wiech served as the President of the Camp for the first five years and was a permanent member of the Board of Directors. Because of Lion Mike’s dedication and service, the Edna Lions Club felt him worthy and deserving of this award.
