Lester Prairie Lions donate checks to support community youth

LESTER PRAIRIE, MN – The Lester Prairie Lions presented two checks to support community youth Thursday morning.

The first was a $1,000 donation to the Lester Prairie Community Task Force on Children and Adolescents.

Task force member Eric Angvall said the group has been astounded by, and is very appreciative of, the donations that it has received since a story was published about the group recently in the Herald Journal.

In addition to the check from the Lions, the group received a $150 check from the Lutheran Women Missionary League (LWML) at St. Paul Lutheran Church.

The group also received a lunch for 88 students that was donated by the Womens’ Guild of the Prairie Community Church, Evangelical Church of Christ.

The second check was a donation of $600 to the City of Lester Prairie to be used for replacement of the bases at the three ballfields in Lester Prairie city parks.
