Christmas Hamper Prep & Distribution
Christmas Hamper Prep & Distribution
The unanticipated demise of a local organization in October, which normally, over the course of a year, raised funds for and assembled Christmas food and toy hampers for families in need in the Kingston/Greenwood area, left many families facing a bleak Christmas during these trying times. The Kingston Lions, along with numerous local faith organizations and groups quickly banded together and partnered in donations, fundraising, canvasing, toy drives and bringing the community together to ensure families in need in our community received Christmas hampers.
Amazingly, in just two months, community support and effort resulted in 87 families receiving Christmas toy and food hampers! The power of community and partnerships cannot be overstated!! What normally took one year occurred in just two months ….. WOW ….. JUST WOW!! Each of the groups took responsibility for procuring a particular item in the hampers.
On Dec 19th, all the community groups dropped off their contributions to the Kingston Lions Hall, including toys. The Hampers were assembled on Dec 20th and distributed on Dec 21st. This could not have happened with out the coming together of our community. Bravo to everyone for coming together to support those in need in our community!!

Santa Comes to Town - Friday, December 02, 2022
On Friday, December 2nd the Kingston Lions, led by Lion Nell McMaster and her team of Lions, donated, and served up six large roasters of free homemade chili along with hotdogs from the Village for the Santa Comes to Kingston holiday celebration held at the Kingston Credit Union Centre arena. This was the first time this event was held since the beginning of the Pandemic and the Lions were rarin’ or should I say roaring to go! This was a great partnership with the Village of Kingston and a fun time was had by the community at the many events held at the rink. Lester the Lion, aka President Pat, made his first appearance since the beginning of the Pandemic. Thanks to the community for supporting the Upper Room Food Bank and the successful “Stuff a Truck” with toys event in support of toy hampers for those in need this holiday season in our community. The generosity of our community in support of others is awesome to see!!

Diabetes Tag Day
On November 17th, the Kingston Lions, led by Club Diabetes Tag Day Chair Lion Barb Lyle, set up information tables at the Kingston Superstore, Greenwood Sobeys, Greenwood Mall and Greenwood Walmart and accepted donations to fight this chronic disease. We would like to thank the Kingston/Greenwood community for supporting this very successful service project.
Diabetes Tag Day provides Lions an opportunity to raise awareness of diabetes as a global public health issue and what needs to be done, collectively and individually, for better prevention, diagnosis, and management of the condition as well as to raise funds to combat this disease.
Camp Lion Maxwell, located In Nova Scotia was founded in 1964 as Camp Atlantic. In 1997, the camp was renamed after Lion Peter Maxwell of Truro NS, in recognition of the tremendous support the Lions Clubs of Nova Scotia have provided the camp. This camp provides a Camp experience to children with medical support and teaches them to age-appropriately self-manage their diabetes. It is a wonderful camp!

DG's Visit 21 November 2022
District Governor Bill Bruhm conducted his official visit to the Kingston Lions Club on Monday, November 21st. Just over 70 Lions were in attendance with visitors from Aylesford, Middleton, Lawrencetown, New Germany and Chezzetcook in attendance. The club voted to donate $500.00 USD to LCIF during this evening as well.
DG Bill presented years of service chevrons to nine Kingston Lions ranging from 10 to 55 years of service. Lion Hugh Moore holds the record at 55 years in the club!!
DG Bill also inducted three new Lions into our club, Lions Ruby, Linda and Diane. President Pat accepted DG Bills “Let your Lions light shine” candle on behalf of the club. PDG David was in attendance and present his personal pin to our three new Lions and presented his banner to President Pat.
With the induction of Baby Lion Ruby, the old Bib was retired, and a new updated bib was presented. Thanks to Lion Laura Hobin for this!!
We had another distinguished?? guest appear out of thin air as well. Lion Wayne “The Fairy Godmother” Lincoln swooped in and presided over the appointment of new Tail Twister Gerry and new Lion Tamer Kellie also taking the time to bless our new Baby Lion with his pixie dust.
A fun time was had by all in the spirit of camaraderie and fellowship. Thanks for the visit, Lion Bill and to the visiting clubs for sharing this evening with us.
