Dear Lions, 
 
 
🌞Summer is here, and as the temperatures rise, so does our excitement for the end-of-year celebrations and meaningful service events that round out our incredible year together.

🗨Quote of the Week:
"Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge."
— Simon Sinek
As we prepare to welcome our new officers and celebrate this year’s accomplishments, let’s remember that leadership in Lionism is rooted in service — in lifting others, supporting our community, and leading with heart. Every Lion, whether a new face or a seasoned member, plays a role in shaping our impact.
 
Thank you for being part of the pride. Let’s finish this Lions year strong — with service, celebration, and plenty of good cheer!
 
Yours in service,
Andrew Perry
Club Secretary
