Trout Creek Lions Hold 1st Annual Food Drive

The Trout Creek Lions held their first annual Food Drive on October 29 2017.The Lions members collected an amazing 2 Half ton truck loads of non-perishable food items by knocking on the doors and collecting from very generous community members. It took the staff of the Powassan and Area Food Bank over 2 hours to stock the shelves with all of the food collected. The Trout Creek Lions club is very proud of this accomplishment and are considering making this an annual event. They are looking forward to collecting even more next year to help those in their community. Congratulations to the Trout Creek Lions for this amazing accomplishment.

A Floral Celebration of Lions’ 100th in Sudbury

Something special in Sudbury to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Lionism. This flower bed was designed at the corner of Paris and Louis Street this summer. I came across it just by chance and wanted to share with members in the A5 district. It has since been removed. – Lion Brenda M.
