          On March 5, 2020, a group of dedicated Lions
          (See photo) gathered at Queens Botanical Gar-
          den to volunteer for the District Service Project
          #1.  The mission was to compost the trees and
          shrubs.  After a short training session by the
          NYC resident arborist,  the Lions were prepared
          for the task.

          At the end of the day, they reported that they
          enjoyed the experience and felt that they made a
          significant contribution to saving the environ-
          ment. They recorded that 114 bags of compost
          were packed in two hours and each bag
          weighed about 40 lbs.

          Great Job, Lions!
