Club Assists Ambulance Service
The Iron River Lions Club recently made a $1,000 donation to the Iron River Ambulance Service to assist them in their efforts to procure a mobile cardiac unit. The Lions’ club efforts to help their fellow community members through efforts like these can only be made possible with your support of their events like the annual Blueberry Festival. Thank you for your support! Looking for older articles? Some items from the Home Page have been moved. You'll find them in a new "Archives" page. Click the icon below...
