The Patton Township Lions Club is seeking donations for a medical equipment loan program serving southern Centre County. We are looking for items such as walkers, wheel chairs, raised toilet seats. Crutches, canes, lift chairs and patient lifts. Other larger items will be considered on an individual basis. This program will be similar to the one run by Dwayne Haines for the Howard Lions Club. The only condition of the loan is that the equipment be returned when it is no longer needed.
Donations or request may be made by:
1. Sending an email to PattonLions@gmail.com
2. Calling Nancy Parks after 2pm at 814-237-4341
3. Calling Don Hazle at 814-692-8424
If sending an email or leaving a message please include your phone number and a description of the item you need or wish to donate. If we do not have the requested equipment we will attempt to obtain the needed item from the Howard Lions Club.
The Patton Township Lions are composed mostly of members from Patton and Halfmoon Township. We meet at the Halfmoon Christian Fellowship Church.

Municipal Building discussion information:
On November 21,2011, the Township tested the Township's Municipal Building and conducted a mold analysis on the meeting room. The analysis indicated there were two abnormal and microtoxic molds present within the Township Building most prevalent in the meeting room. These two molds were Chaetomium and Peniccilium/Aspergillus.
Although the counts are not known to cause any major health problems and are not extremely elevated, something that is microtoxic is more of a health concern than other types of molds. See link below for mold analysis.
