Huachuca City Lions Club to hold inaugural clothing exchange, purse auction and June meeting with sheriff
Summary
The Huachuca City Lions Club will host a clothing exchange and is planning a purse auction May 10; proceeds support eyeglasses and eye exams for people in need. The club's June 24 meeting will feature Cochise County Sheriff Mark Daniels.
Christie Hirschberg, president of the Huachuca City Lions Club, told KWCD First Watch the club will host a clothing exchange tomorrow from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at its yellow clubhouse on Huachuca Boulevard. Donated items will be available to residents in need; donors may drop off clothing during that window, and people who have nothing to donate are still welcome to "shop."
"Tomorrow from 1 to 3, we have a clothing exchange," Christie Hirschberg said. Hirschberg said the event is the club's inaugural clothing exchange and that leaders will expand the program to include children’s clothing if demand supports it.
The club also announced a purse auction and "high tea" with a hat contest on May 10 at Buddy's Bar in Whetstone. The auction will include new and gently used purses; Hirschberg said proceeds fund eyeglasses and eye exams for needy residents in Huachuca City and the Whetstone area and support other community programs such as monthly breakfasts and bingo fundraisers.
Hirschberg said the Lions Club will host Cochise County Sheriff Mark Daniels as guest speaker at a June 24 meeting starting at 5:30 p.m.; organizers said the meeting will include barbecue and is open to the public. She also said the club is planting a donated tree behind the Huachuca City library and holds periodic open-house "mixers" to recruit members.
