Kansas Lions

Leaders from Lions Clubs across Kansas will again gather at the Best Western Convention Complex in McPherson, Oct. 19 to 21, for planning, fun and fellowship as they move forward in the new Lions year in community service. The local McPherson and area Lions clubs will serve as hosts to the leaders from all corners of Kansas.

This will be the second meeting this club year of the State Council of Governors, and will be led by Council Chair Helen LeBlanc of Valley Center. The District Governors are Sheryl Brenn, District 17-L (far west); Bill Sanderson, District 17-I (north central); Beverly Nichols, District 17-O (north east); Mel Barnett, District 17-N (south central); and Bill Kincaid, District 17-S (south east). The Council of Governors is the official governing body of all Kansas Lions clubs, and meets four times each club year from July through June. In addition to official meetings of the Lions Council of Governors, most state committees hold planning and evaluation meetings of programs in place to assist local clubs in service to their hometown communities.

Some of the Adult Services Committees are Diabetes Awareness, Eye Bank Transplant information, Eyeglass Recycling, Environmental Photo Contests, and Public Relations Media. The Youth Services Committees include the State Band Program, Peace Poster Contest, Camps for Handicapped Children, and Grades 6 to 12 Leo Clubs for students in various community service projects.
