Lions Club visits trees to honor members

Among the pine straw and soil that rests among the trees near the Farragut Community Center, there is a small plaque near a tall redbud tree.

On that plaque, there is the Town of Farragut logo, a Farragut Lions Club logo and two words in big, bold letters: “WE SERVE.”
