Paypal – Lakewood First Lions Crab Feed a Drive Through in 2021
The Lakewood First Lions Club would like to thank Heritage Bank in Lakewood for their continuing sponsorship of our annual crab feed. This year, because of the pandemic, it is being held from 2 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 14th, as a drive through in Fort Steilacoom Park. We prefer that meals be paid ahead of time using PayPal but will accept checks.
Lakewood First Lions Club members share a core belief:
To make Lakewood a better community!
Lions in Lakewood share three things in common:
- We Serve
