Lions conduct vision screenings in county schools
Lions Clubs of Botetourt County have completed the vision screening in the elementary, middle and high schools in Botetourt County. A total of 1,283 students were screened and approximately 10% or 128 were referred to optometrists for further evaluation. The lead Lions Club in this effort was the Daleville Fincastle Lions Club. They were assisted by the Buchanan Lions Club at Buchanan Elementary and James River High School. Pictured above are the Lions that did the bulk of the screening, from left, Betty Reynolds, Vision Screening coordinator, and Lions Pat Tayloe and Eric Whalen. Other Lions who assisted with this project from the Daleville Fincastle Lions Club were Kathy Caldwell, Lowell Skelton, Teresa Fridley, Teri Walker and Denise Scothorn. Lions from the Buchanan Club who assisted were President Tim Heinlein and Jeanne Cook.
