D-R Leo Club looking to attend USA/Canada Leo forum

Posted

In 2011 the Dighton- Rehoboth Leo Club was formed as a community service organization. The Club is sponsored by the Dighton Lions, the Rehoboth Lions and the Rehoboth Anawan Lions. Since their inception they have won District 33S Leo club of the year twice, and for their continued local activities have won the respect of the Lions Clubs across the District.. The club has been outstanding in the community and have done things like collect and donate iPods to elders with Alzheimer’s and Dementia, hosted soup kitchens for the homeless, and have been working to restore the once vibrant trail behind the Rehoboth Council on Aging. If you have attended the Rehoboth Lions clam boils you will see them serving and working hard. They are always there to help the parent organizations in their fund raisers.

In August of this year five Leos hope to attend the 1st USA/Canada Leo Leadership Forum, in New York City, where they will participate in the Opening Ceremony, Social Events, Tours, Workshops, Seminars, interact with Guest Speakers, and many other activities planned to help them grow as leaders in their community. Each of these Leos will need to raise $700 to pay for the trip. All of the donations for Leo activities, such as upcoming Open Mic Night, and Poetry slam goes directly to fund their charitable work including a planned donation to the Citizen’s Scholarship Fund. To help them pay for this trip they need your donation which would go toward towards their hotel, registration fees, and any off-site activities. Any donation would be much appreciated.. You can donate to help fund their trip at www.gofundme.com/3i2z37c, or for more information you can contact Mrs. O’Gara at D-R High School
