President's Theme

Move to Grow in 2009-2010

International President Wirfs’ theme, Move to Grow, expresses the thought that all things need momentum in order to progress. The adaptable ginkgo tree represents this idea, and symbolizes hope and peace. Like Lions Clubs International, the ginkgo has an esteemed heritage, longevity, value and global abundance.
