City leaders such as the city administrator, city council members, EDC director, police chief, chamber board members and others have already committed to charter the club, but they need more members from the community and are hoping that the evening dinner will attract more interested participants.
Press Release:
The Howe Lions Club of Howe, Texas is joining the world’s largest service organization, Lions Clubs International. The Howe Lions will join the more than 47,000 Lions clubs making a difference in communities around the world. The new club is now seeking civic-minded men and women to join them in working together to meet needs within the community.
“Lions are men and women who want to help, who want to make a difference, and who want to have fun while doing it. Lions give a lot to their communities, but they get back something that’s even more valuable – the satisfaction that comes from changing lives,” said Charles Bethards, 2nd VDG District 2E2, Colleyville Lions Club, and Organizing Lion.
In addition to providing hands-on support, Lions clubs give members an opportunity to advance worthy causes, serve with friends and become leaders in the community.
A one-hour information session is scheduled on Thursday, March 31, 2016 at 6:30 PM at Gabriela’s for interested community members who want to learn more about Lions and how they can make a difference in their community. Lion leaders will also be visiting local businesses and community leaders to invite them to join the new club.
For more information on becoming a charter member of this new club, please contact Charles Bethards at bethards@sbcglobal.net or call at 817-999-4784 cell.
