Welcome to the Fargo Lions Club!

The Fargo Lions Club is North Dakota's first Lions Club: celebrating its 90th year of service in 2011. We meet on Mondays at Noon at the Radisson Hotel located in downtown Fargo. Individuals interested in being invited to attend a meeting should contact any club member, or just stop by and introduce yourself.

Happy New Year! 2012 promises to be an exciting and groundbreaking year for the Fargo Lions. Planning is well underway for “For Your Eyes Only” to be held February 4th; the mission trip to Puerto Vallarta, the week of February 12th; and the 2012 State Lions Convention in Fargo, October 26-27. These events, along with our regular host of community service and social activities, provide members great opportunities to get involved. What a great time, too, to invite guests to Lions and show them what good works we do in the community and around the world – and the fun we have doing it.

A big thank you to all who have made the first half of the Lions year a great success. Let’s keep the momentum going as we move into to the second half of the year, as there is plenty more to come!

-- Lion President, Bob Ames

August 1, 2011 - The Fargo Lions Club entered this photo taken by Lion Gary Renier of a Red Fox leaving its winter den along the Red River in the Environmental Photo Contest last fall. After competing at the District 5NE, State and Multiple District 5 levels of the competition, we are pleased to have learned that Dr. Renier's photo will be featured on the cover of the 2012 Lions Clubs International calendar! The Fargo Lions Conservancy Park, located along the Red River in south Fargo, was started in 1997 to provide a riparian environment for students and nature lovers to observe wild plant and animal life in the city. Congratulations to Lion Gary and thank you for representing the Fargo Lions on the International stage!

Lions are an international network of 1.3 million men and women in 205 countries and geographic areas who work together to answer the needs that challenge communities around the world.
