West Marin Lions Club - Lions e-Clubhouse

The Lions Club of West Marin supports many community programs and focuses on providing valuable opportunities for our youth to develop essential life skills,
explore their interests & build self-esteem.

Youth Programs:

We support the West Marin School’s yearly 8th grade field trip, and the Tomales High School Rising Senior Class Fundraiser, Gallary Route One: Artists in the Schools Program, and many other annual celebrations and events.
West Marin Field Committee Project (WMFC Project): The WMFC Project provides vital support to maintaining the field and providing equipment for a variety of youth sports programs, including CYO Basketball, Soccer, Little League, Volleyball & more!

WMFC Project ensures that all children in our community have the opportunity to participate in organized sports, learn valuable teamwork skills, and develop a lifelong love of physical activity. The WMFC Project also supports community access to the West Marin School Community Gym by offering liability insurance and working in partnership with SUSD.

The Lions’ Club generously funds West Marin Community Services Youth Programs. WMCS hosts a Youth Center 5-days a week at West Marin School serving 6-8 grade students. This year Tomales High School and 7-8th grade Tomales Elementary students will have programming 2-days a week at the Tomales Town Hall (TTH).
California Lions Club High School Student Speakers Contest: We sponsor the Student Speakers Club area Zone contest in cooperation with Tomales High School and The Rural Debate Initiative. We celebrate our youth’s ideas and help them to develop public speaking skills.

Other Family & Community Projects:

This is a family-friendly event including a Community Barn Dance and a Parade in downtown Point Reyes Station the first full weekend in June every year.
