Escalon Lions Club continues to collect the pull tabs from beverage cans, with the club able to ‘trade in’ a certain amount of pounds of the pull tabs to provide a night’s lodging for a family at the Ronald McDonald House while a child is undergoing treatment for a number of different life-threatening illnesses. Here, donor Dave Willis, left, provides a bag of the tabs to Lion John Paladichuk.
