Members of the Hamlet Lions Club will be cooking for a good cause this weekend at the Starke County Fairgrounds. President Mitch Siemens says they will open their building on Friday to prepare food for Starke County Relay for Life supporters and volunteers.

“We’re going to cook hamburgers and hot dogs and Polish sausage and French fries and have some pop there and nachos and cheese and all sorts of good stuff,” Siemens said during a visit to the WKVI morning show.

He adds the Lions Club will donate all of its profits and then some to Starke County Relay for Life.

“We started off all of our profits go, but our profits were only $350-400, so we just give a flat $500. If we make more than $500 we’ll give more than $500. Nothing less than the $500.”

Hamlet Lions Club members will be serving food Friday night until at least 10 p.m. Starke County’s Relay for Life event gets under way at 3 p.m. at the Starke County Fairgrounds and continues until 9 a.m. Saturday.
