Lions International is in its 100th year, and to honor it the Adel Lions Club is hosting a free centennial celebration event.

The celebration will be held on Wednesday, June 28th at 7 p.m. in the Adel-DeSoto-Minburn High School auditorium. Iowa State University’s Athletic Director Jamie Pollard will be the guest speaker for the event. A reception will follow the program in the middle school commons area. Because seating is limited, people are encouraged to get their tickets ahead of time. Free tickets are available from any Lions Club member, or can be picked up at Russell Abstract, located at 821 Main Street in Adel, and the Adel Chamber Office at City Hall.
