MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION AND OPPORTUNITIES
Lions serve to meet the needs of our communities and the world. When caring people join together, roll up their sleeves, and take action to make the community better, it’s a beautiful thing —and an incredible feeling for everyone involved, from the members to the recipients of our service. When we hear “Thank you for all you do” Lions take pride together in making an impact and changing lives for the better.
Every Lions Club needs active members to participate in our community service projects, fund raisers, administrative and leadership duties. New members provide new ideas, energy, leadership, needed skills, and a crew to do our hands on work, Not every member needs to do every project. Old and new members can pick the projects and rolls in lions that most match their interests, skills, and time.
