The Lions Club meets the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 1:30PM in the Clubhouse.
The Association of Lions Clubs was established in 1917 in Chicago, Illinois, by Melvin Jones. Jones was a 38-year-old Chicago business leader who told members of his local business club they should reach beyond business issues and address the betterment of their communities and the world.
Lions Club Mission: We are united in fellowship, as friends, family and neighbors to serve the community wherever needs exist and support the national and global endeavor of the Lions Club International.
The Lions Motto is "We Serve". As a group we are committed to provide service and information in the local community for the blind, visually and hearing-impaired children, seniors, hunger and those in general need in our community.
Membership in the Lions Club is by "invitation only" as mandated by its constitution and by-laws. All member applicants need a sponsor who is an active member and of good standing in the club to join.
