The Bismarck Lions Club has announced plans to celebrate its 66th Anniversary with a fish fry and sweet corn on Saturday, August 6th.
Bill Jaffe, the Lions Club’s immediate past president, says money raised will allow the club to continue projects such as free pre-school vision screenings.
The Annual Jonah Fish Fry will run from 3:30 until 7:30 p.m. on August 6th at the high school in Bismarck.
New this year, Michael Vice will display his fishing boat with its wrap advocating Scott’s Law. In 2020, Vice was hit while sitting in his Vermilion County Sheriff’s Department squad car along the interstate. The boat brings two of Vice’s passions – fishing and law enforcement – together to spread awareness about Scott’s Law. It is a law requiring motorists to slow down and carefully pass emergency vehicles at accident scenes or other locations along highways when their emergency lights are activated.
Advance tickets for the Fish Fry are available now by calling 217-304-6167 or 217-759-7465. Tickets are $9….or $5 for children six to twelve years old. Children under five are free. Sponsor packs of 10 tickets are also now available for $85.
