A message from the Club President     (updated Jan 9, 2022)

Thank you for visiting our Lions Club website!

2022 continue to be a very challenging year for all. 

We started the Lions Year 2021-2022 on July 1, 2021 when we were still under the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, the pandemic still lingers into 2022. 

We celebrated our Club 5th Charter Anniversary on November 27, 2021 with an outdoor winter hike.  We presented a Melvin Jones Fellowship Award to Lion Kelvin Yeung for his untiring dedication to the many service activities of our Club in the last five years.  Thank You Lion Kelvin for your service!

Angus Glen Lions continue to show our creativity and resilience.  We meet online monthly. We extended the "Pull Tabs for Puppies" to end of March 2022. We concluded our "Tablets for Long Term Care Homes" project in January this year with a total of 122 tablets donated to 24 Long Term Care Senior Homes supporting over 4,500 residents to connect with family members through video chats during the pandemic and beyond.  Thank you to the Federal Govenrment "New Horizon Seniors Program" grant.  Together with the support from several other Lions Clubs in A-16, we were able to take our project to a higher level to benefit more senior residents in more Long Term Care Homes.

Together, We Serve! 

Lion Tim Cheung, Club President
