Lions select citizens of the year

The Three Rivers Lions Club has selected Jo and Del Barton of Three Rivers as the winners of this year’s “Bruce C. Snook Citizens of the Year” award.
Since 1965, the Lions Club has recognized recipients who, through a commitment to service, have given unselfishly of themselves for the betterment of the community. In keeping with this tradition, the Bartons will receive their honor during a public banquet May 9.
The Bartons have served the community in a variety of ways, such as reaching out to friends and neighbors in need, to participating in many local community organizations, including the Three Rivers Woman’s Club, the Three Rivers Community Players and the Three Rivers Food Site.
Tickets for the banquet, priced at $25 per person, are on sale at Ridgeway Floral in Three Rivers. They will remain on sale through May 2.
Tickets will not be available at the door.
