MP Lions to host annual chicken dinner

The Middle Point Lions Club will host its 43rd annual Chicken Dinner on Sunday, May 1, at the Lincolnview School Cafeteria. Dinner includes “all you can eat” chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, applesauce, a dinner roll, beverage and pie.  Tickets are $8 for adults, $4 for children ages 6-12 and all children under 5 are admitted free. Dinner will be served from 11 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. and carryout service will also be provided.

Proceeds from the event will go toward the scholarship fund at Lincolnview. This year, three scholarships will be awarded to Lincolnview seniors during graduation ceremonies. Scholarships are based on scholastic records, financial need and the desire of the students to attend and finish college.

Since 1968, 75 graduates have received more than $50,000 in scholarships.
