Clovis Evening Lions have been helping Floyd Lions with their Jamboree for a few years now. It is so neat to hear local talent sing and also to get hear Will Banister. This year was the 73rd year they have held their Jamboree. We also had a special guest helper, District Governor Frankie Davis came to the Jamboree and helped with admission. 

The monthly meeting was held March 4 at First Baptist/Vista Grande Church in Tijeras with Lion Rena Harris heading the potluck meal.  Highlight was the visit and talk by DG Frankie Davis who told about his recent Lions service visits abroad. President Sarah Berry was pleased to report that two guests attending, Wes Harris and Tony Mittas, later submitted their applications for Lions membership. Approval was given through an email vote by Club members.

Farmington Evening Lions Club recently lost Lion Gary Lund.  Gary joined our club on October 1, 2001.  One of Gary’s favorite projects was the Pancake Breakfast.  He worked all stations and always had a smile!!    He was great to get sponsors for all of our Fundraising Projects. The joke was, he could get anyone to donate. Some have said that it may have been their way to get him to leave. (Joke!)  He had the gift of gab!  We will miss that!

From the very beginning, Lions have welcomed everyone with a heart to serve — and that spirit shines especially bright when we engage younger generations. Young people bring fresh ideas, new energy and a passion for service that help keep our organization strong, relevant and growing. To carry our mission into the next 100 years and beyond, we must continue inviting dynamic, service-minded people to stand alongside us.

What a busy month March has been and April is looking very similar at the moment. We had a very good Q3 Cabinet meeting in Moriarty and a successful service project. This project was a bit different, we combined a couple of aspects of Community together by meeting people at the door of a local restaurant and giving them tickets for their drinks. This gave us an opportunity to showcase Lions in action as well as talking to people about Lionism and our mission, marketing, recru

When you join Lions, you may focus on how you will give back to others through service. What you may not immediately realize is how much Lions gives back to you. Becoming a Lion opens the door to experiencing more — more belonging, more purpose, more leadership and more community.
