Lions Clubs International recognize outstanding individuals by bestowing on them an award that is named after its founder, Melvin Jones. This award is the highest form of recognition and embodies humanitarian ideas consistent with the nature and purpose of Lionism. The recipient of this award becomes a model of exemplary service to his club and the community which it serves. President Paul Blowey was delighted to present Lions Steve Grummitt and Chris Northey with the award of a Melvin Jones Fellowship at our recent Charter Night Celebration.
 Peace Posters 2017 "Heritage,
Myths and Legends" What a great Carnival Week we had! Our Carnival Princess was Ella, pictured centre with her two attendants, Lila (left) and Imogen (right) and Lions' President- elect, Paul German.  Trees of Light  The new lights looked fantastic this Christmas on the beautiful trees, kindly donated by South West Lakes Trust. Maybe this contributed to the increase in sponsors, bringing in nearly £6,000 for our chosen charities, which this year are CLIC Sargent, Marie Curie and Parkinsons UK. When we are able to reclaim the tax, this figure will rise again, so, as you can see, it makes possible a really worthwhile donation to three very good causes. Thank you again to all those who supported and sponsored this wonderful scheme. | For details on other events throughout the year, visit our events page.  |
