COBB, Calif. – The Mountain Lions Club of Cobb presented their final fundraising check of the year to Cobb Elementary School's new principal, Shelly Tan at a rally on Monday, Nov. 29.

 

Helping raise funds for many Lake County nonprofits has made 2010 a busy and productive year for the Mountain Lions.


Success has resulted from having rummage sales coinciding with pancake and biscuit and gravy breakfasts.


In conjunction with the annual Memorial Day Pancake Breakfast a rummage sale for the Middletown Senior Center was held. Senior center staff worked the rummage sale and raised over $2,400 enabling the center to keep the Meals on Wheels program operating longer than expected despite budget cuts.


The July 4th Biscuit and Gravy Breakfast sponsored an estate sale to benefit Lake County's Safe House. Safe House board members and volunteers ran the sale and raised over $2,200.


The annual Labor Day Pancake Breakfast helped the Acme Foundation raise $500 to help continue their work providing monetary assistance for veterinary expenses of seriously ill cats and dogs belonging to low income seniors and the disabled.


One hundred percent of rummage sale proceeds went to the participating nonprofit organizations and breakfast proceeds went to the Mountain Lions Club to help with overhead expenses incurred by the Cobb Community Center, also know as “The Little Red Schoolhouse.”

 

The sixth annual Ho-Down Rib Dinner to benefit Cobb Elementary School was held in October, with the result being the $500 check presented to the school.


Most recently the Mountain Lions Club committed $500 to the Light Up A Life Celebration sponsored by Hospice Services of Lake County.


In total The Cobb Mountain Lions Club assisted the important Lake County resources mentioned with more than $6,000.

 

The Mountain Lions Club thanks all who donated and/or participated in these events, which contributed to successful results.
