Honor Roll
While our Club's primary focus is on serving the community, we are also proud of our members who have been recognized with awards for their volunteer work or who have held leadership positions throughout the district and here at our club. The purpose of this page is to show the pride and appreciation we have for our members who have achieved awards or titles through service as Lions.
