August, 2025:
Fellow Lions and Leos,
We are just one month into Navigating into the Future, and I’m already inspired by the energy and enthusiasm across our District!
Over 70 dedicated Lions attended our 24‑L Cabinet Installation, where we were honored to have PID Jay Moughon install our new cabinet. Together, we passed key resolutions—including our budget—shared our District Goals for the year, explored our new website, and learned about the Helen Keller 2.0 initiative in California. I was truly humbled by the turnout and the selfless dedication of everyone there.
Great things are already happening—two potential new Leo Clubs are in the works! We’re actively pursuing extension opportunities across the District, while our Global Action Team is driving Service, Leadership, Membership, and Extension initiatives. Our Leadership team has begun official club visits, and our new Web of Service Heroes is live on our website—check it out!
Mark your calendars:
