The Ruidoso Evening Lions helped the Ruidoso Warrior Special Olympians to raise $4,000.00 at their Spaghetti dinner. International Director Lion Melissa Washburn visited Ruidoso, along with her husband Librarian Johnny Washburn & her partner in service Lion Gemma Ferguson to induct new members and officers.

Also in May, a picture of the poster and an explanation of it was posted in the East Mountain Library, giving our Lions Club project even more publicity. See this year's winning posters at Lionsclubs.org, search Peace Poster (Although LCI did not correctly name our submitting Club!)

As we prepare to enter the final month of our fiscal year, we have an opportunity to reflect on what we have achieved and commit to finishing strong. Through LCIF, Lions and Leos are creating change that will be felt for generations.

The New Mexico Lions Eye Foundation Officers and Trustees can’t thank Lions enough for their support through the second half of this year. We didn’t sell all of our Raffle tickets but generous Club donations helped to make up the difference. There aren’t sufficient words to express our gratitude to all the Lions who participated.

Recently our club members (Carlsbad Community Lions Club), along with some help from the Carlsbad Downtown Lions Club members participated in The Hand Project - assembling prosthetic hand kits that will help restore independence, confidence, and opportunity for individuals around the world.

It was a tough job, but in true Lions fashion, Socorro County Lions Club met it head one. They are a pretty new club with a zest to Serve. On May 16th, with 7 members joining together, they tackled a pretty tough project, with a smile! They cleaned, painted and did what was needed of them in 29 hours of Service. Lion Club President Moneic said that the group they worked with “builds tiny homes and always need help.” They hope to do it again. Great job, Socorro County Lion

2027 D40 Convention in Albuquerque

Clovis Evening Lions have been helping Bloodline Boxings Events for some time now. The hopes for these children is to do better in school and in our community. They work hard practicing and have to maintain their grades in school in order to continue boxing. We have met a lot of really awesome young men and women that have proven they have the will and the way to do better for our community.

Clovis Evening Lions are always ready to help our kids. We presented a check to Justin (the Boy Scouts Leader) to help the kids go to camp. It always feels good to know that a child will further their future by the things they will learn along the way.

A conversation exploring how movement, music, energy and celebration can transform meetings, conventions and service into engaging experiences, boosting member connection, retention and the overall joy of being a Lion.
