Lakeland Lions Club

I am pleased to announce the Lakeland Lions Club has donated funds for a new floor in the IH Clubhouse. This will provide funding for the a major phase of a comprehensive plan to update and renovate the IH Clubhouse so it can continue to be an excellent community resource.

The funds provided by the Lakeland Lions Club will provide complete funding for the new floor and continues the truly outstanding tradition of service by the Lakeland Lions Club. Past donations to the community by the Lakeland Lions Club has included playground equipment, the IH Park Pavilion, funding for a number of events benefiting community children, as well as their continued service of eye checkups and providing eye care and eye glasses to persons who would not otherwise be able to afford such care!

As an example of the great community service by the Lakeland Lions Club, I observed the Lakeland Lions Club not only provide $600 in funding for the community Easter Egg Hunt, but then, literally within a minute, 16 members volunteered their time to help with the morning Easter Egg Hunt and the evening teen Easter Egg Hunt!

As everyone knows, it is frequently easier to donate money than your precious time.

A big thanks to the Lakeland Lions Club. Don't forget to say "thanks" and express your appreciation to the Lakeland Lions Club for their dedication to community service and contributions to our community. In addition, the Lakeland Lions Club contributes to area, regional and international Lions Club assistance programs.

The Lakeland Lions Club supports such programs as the Christmas Toys Program, eye testing at schools and day care centers, and supports all local schools, including Bolton, Lakeland Elementary, Barret Chapel and Arlington.

The Lakeland Lions Club currently has membership of 52 very active members and is a major resource of the Lakeland Community.
