Knights for Sight Metric Century
August 16, 2008
Tour the scenic back roads of Maryland’s Eastern Shore (and
Delaware) while helping to alleviate the suffering of blindness in the world.
Eighty years ago, Helen Keller challenged the Lions Club
International with these words: "Will you not help me hasten the day when there
shall be no preventable blindness; no little deaf, blind children untaught; no
blind man or woman unaided? I appeal to you Lions, you who have your sight and
hearing, you who are strong and brave and kind. Will you not constitute
yourselves Knights of the Blind in this crusade against darkness?"
You can help the Salisbury Lions Club meet the challenge by
simply joining us for a leisurely ride through the small towns and rural byways
of Delmarva. We’ll do the rest, providing stops for refreshment along the way,
sag support, a cue sheet and map, and a short-sleeved T-shirt. So come along and
become a Knight for Sight! You’ll be glad you did!
