Lions plan two fairs in Helensburgh
Helensburgh Lions Club would love new members to help organise events for the town. It doesn’t involve lots of time, and is really rewarding
The popular Helensburgh Lions Club Brick Fair will be back on Sunday, 9 August at Tradies Helensburgh. Save the date to enjoy fun for the whole family with amazing displays, rare and vintage Lego and great prizes to be won!
Also coming up on our calendar is the much-loved Helensburgh Country Fair on Saturday, 24 October. “We would love to see more locals coming along to our meetings to give their ideas and help with the planning,”
said the Lions Club president, Rod Peppernell.
The Lions Club has had a busy few months with fundraising BBQs, and preparing Mother’s Day gift bags for the residents of Kennett Home in Stanwell Park, which are always very much appreciated.
“This has been one of our projects for many years now and brings so much joy to us and the residents,” said Helensburgh Lion Melissa, who organises the gift bags.
“Thank you to everyone that donates, buys a raffle ticket or a sausage sandwich. It’s because of you that we continue to do these things.”
In April, the Lions Club held its Anzac Day ceremony at Stanwell Tops, with a great turnout.
The Lions Club is on the lookout for new members. It doesn’t involve lots of time, and is really rewarding.
One member, Libby, said: “Since becoming involved with Lions, first as a Lions Lady, then as a Lioness and lastly as a full member, I can truthfully say that you can be involved without much interruption to your personal commitments. Helensburgh Lions Club is a wonderful way to help others, both here and overseas. Being a member is a privilege!”
Another Lion, Gina, agrees: “I love the determination of our small club to continue to serve our local and international community.”
