The Lion's Club held its annual Thanksgiving Shopping Spree by selling raffle tickets at King's Market and Market Place. On Sunday, November 23, 2008, the Lions enlisted the help of 5-year old Evyn Johnson of Friday Harbor to draw the winning names.

The winner of the shopping spree was Ann Walbert, who graciously donated her winnings to the Food Bank. The Lions Club collected $480 worth of groceries during the four-minute run through the store, filling approximately 5 shopping carts. Kings donated another $50 worth of meat.

Three runners-up won turkeys: West & Sue Davis, Debbie Cutting, and Tony Vivenzio.
