The address is 400 Main Street in Ashland, on the big field. There will be food, fun, music, prizes, and a bunch of great cars!

Lions at Ashland Day

Ashland Day is back again this year and so are we! The Ashland Lions will be on hand with their food trailer selling a variety of food and beverages. We'll also have a booth to talk with people about Lions. The event is Saturday, Sept. 19, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. at Stone Park in Ashland. We're also bringing back the Golf Ball Drop at Ashland Day.

This is a fundraiser benefiting the Ashland Lions and the Ashland Fire Dept. Numbered balls (sold for $5 each) will be dropped from the AFD's tower truck. Tickets (corresponding to the ball numbers) will be available from Lion Julian Doktor at 508-881-4664 or from any Lion member. Tickets will also be available at Ashland Day. A ball in the hole or closest to the hole will win $250. The ball farthest from the hole wins $50. You do not need to be present to win.
