Broom sales were quite different from years past, when Thalia Lions Club members would sell their wares door to door. Lion Dick Kreassig recalled those days - “There were a lot of long driveways and then nobody was home,” and 81-year-old Lion Ed DeLong added, “In our area, a lot of the houses are a quarter-mile apart. It’s just difficult for people our age to go around door to door.”
