The key to creating a sense of community is finding things in common. All Lions share an interest in and commitment to service. But they may share other interests as well. Such as motorcycles. A profession. Or an ethnic heritage.
Often a shared interest brings even greater energy to a group of Lions – and enlivens their connection to the local community. That's why we offer you the opportunity to start a special interest club.
Types of Special Interest Clubs
A special interest club focuses on one element that many of its members have in common. Here are just a few examples:
Boise Special Olympics Lions Club
Montgomery County Police and Fire Fighters Lions Club
Australian Parliament Lions Club
Fairbanks Snowmobile Fun Lions Club
Las Vegas Opticians Lions Club
Miami Cuban Lions Club
England Helen Keller Internet Lions Club
The possibilities are endless.
Chartering a Special Interest Club
A Lions club that is based on a special interest can be chartered just like a traditional club. You will need:
20 or more charter members
A sponsoring club, district cabinet or district committee, region or zone
The district governor's approval
Completed charter application
Appropriate charter fees
