What is a Lion?
A Lion is an individual who desires to be of service to his (or her) community. Willingness within his means to expend his energy and resources for the benefit of that community and those less fortunate than he. He seeks no personal gain through his affiliation with Lionism. He seeks and gives comradeship among his fellows.

Why Should I Become a Lion?
In becoming a Lion you will share in the recognition of being a member of the largest service organization in the world. You will be recognized in your community as a volunteer working toward improving life for those less fortunate. You can gain experience in the conduct of meetings and experience the thrill of leadership in your Lions Club.

How Can I Become a Lion?
Attend a meeting as a guest of a Lion or Club. Membership is by invitation extended by a Lion. Let your host know of your desire to join--or send in an application form to the Club. After a meeting (or two) as a guest, you complete the application and give it to your host or the Membership Chairman. Board action confirms or denies your application. Your host notifies you of your acceptance. Upon receipt of payment of dues and initiation fee your Membership Chairman will schedule your installation date. Your installation as a Lion Cub into the Host Lions Club is conducted by a Past President of your club or other dignitary from the District. This occasion is considered to be a solemn and joyous moment for the club as another member joins the "We Serve" organization and for you the sharing of that privilege. Membership Application
