DUES: Lions dues are collected for the calendar year. Dues must be paid in advance as we are assessed by Lions Clubs International (LCI) and District 5M11, based on the number of members we have on the rolls as of December 31st. Please pay your dues by December 31st
CHRISTMAS LIGHT JUDGING WILL BE DEC. 15th @ 5pm. We will meet at the community center. Ideally, we’d like five teams of judges to judge the five neighborhoods. The Grand Prize home will be picked from the neighborhood winners. With multiple teams, this shouldn’t take more than an hour or two. This has been a Dilworth Lions tradition for many years and is good PR for our club. Please come early to our meeting on December 15th and help judge. Contact Lion Mark Asleson for further info: masleson@gmail.com
PLEASE CONTACT PRESIDENT RYAN MULLIKIN (701-866-3106) IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT OR ARE ABLE TO VOLUNTEER FOR ANY OF OUR EVENTS, FUNCTIONS OR MEETINGS
THANK YOU FOR SERVING YOUR DILWORTH LIONS CLUB !
