Local Residents Form New Club in Cromwell to Help Community

The Town of Cromwell is joining the world’s largest service organization, Lions Clubs International. The Cromwell Lions Club will join the more than 46,000 Lions clubs making a difference in communities around the world. The new club is now seeking civic-minded men and women from age 21 and up, of all backgrounds, to join them in working together to meet needs within the community.

“Lions are people who want to help, who want to make a difference, and who want to have fun while doing it. Lions give a lot to their communities, but they get back something that’s even more valuable – the satisfaction that comes from changing lives,” said Vice District Governor Lion Michele Wyatt.

In addition to providing hands-on support, Lions clubs give members an opportunity to advance worthy causes, serve with friends and become leaders in the community.

An organizational meeting is scheduled on Thursday December 5th at 6:30pm at Taphouse 150, 150 Sebethe Dr, Cromwell, 06416 for interested community members who want to learn more about Lions and how they can make a difference in their community. Lion leaders will also be visiting local businesses and community leaders to invite them to join the new club.
