To the editor:

The Brown County Lions Club has changed its grant cycle to coincide with the fiscal year that now runs from July 1 through June 30. Organizations wishing to submit a grant application request in July should watch for information in The Democrat in mid-June.

We regret any inconvenience this change may cause your organization.

Delbert Crocker, member of the finance committee
