Boynton Lions Club Gives Awards to Boynton Elementary Graduates

  • Thursday, May 26, 2022

The Boynton Lions Club of Ringgold honors Boynton Elementary graduates that exemplify the spirit and character of Catoosa County war hero Major Thomas Duckett. Major Duckett was reported missing in action during the Vietnam War when his fighter jet was shot down. He graduated from Boynton Elementary and Ringgold High School.

Lions Club past president Randall Franks presented the 2022 awards, including $100, to Boynton graduates Sam Dills and Ansley Lawson on behalf of the club and the North Georgia Electric Membership Roundup Grant.

The Boynton Lions Club also honors Boynton Elementary graduates that exhibits encouraging nature of service shared by late Lion David Carlock. Mr. Carlock, a television journalist, Catoosa County magistrate judge and coroner, chose the principles of Lionism – fostering a spirit of understanding; promoting principles of good citizenship, and taking an interest in the welfare of others as benchmarks of his service. Lions Club past president Randall Franks presented the award, including $100, to Boynton graduate Patrick Sullivan.

The Boynton Lions Club meets the second Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall of Boynton United Methodist Church.
