Activities :

Serve YOUR Community, Have Fun and Make Lots of Friends!

Look for the Columbia 20/20 booth at the Hartsburg Punkin Festival in October. We make the "Walking Taco's" , decorated pumkins and other fun family items.  Stop by and try a walking taco!  

Springtime & Summer/Fall flower bulbs available thru us in the fall and spring.  

Plus order your Holiday Greenery for gifts to friends, neighbors and business associates.

All money raised will be used to help fund various Lions and community projects for the coming year.

Our club collects used cell phones and computer ink cartridges.

Not only do we collect eye glasses but we also take one day out of the month to sort the glasses at MLERF. It's quite interesting to see the many different styles of glasses that come in. They eye glasses are then sent to other countries with doctors and missionaries and given to those in need. 

You can drop off used eye glasses at the Missouri Lions Eye Research Foundation at 404 Portland Street, Columbia MO 65201  (Behind Regional Hospital)  573-443-1471, web site is www.mlerf.org
