Members representing “Village Friends”, a non-profit organization serving the Auburn-Opelika community which provides a network of services and support to help seniors age independently in their homes, were recent guests of the Opelika Lions Club.

The group provides a variety of services, including transportation, grocery and medical deliveries.  As the Auburn-Opelika area continues its growth as a retirement destination, the demand for services and organizations to support seniors will expand.  Representatives of the organization were local President Mical Traynor, right, and volunteer Betty Corbin,middle.  Introduction was made by Lion Jim Allen, left.
