District 202D                                               Edition: September 2021

                     Message from the DG...
                     Greetings from my bubble!
                     I think the announcement that we were heading in to Alert Level 4 caught us all off
                     guard but I am sure we all see the reasoning behind it. Being on a 10 week sabbatical,
                     I admit to being a bit put out about everyone else ‘working from home’ too! It’s hard to
                     stay motivated!

                     Unfortunately many activities, meetings and projects planned for August have had to be
                     put on hold while those a little further out, including our planned Youth exchange with
                     202M in October are in jeopardy. ANZI Pacific Forum has also been cancelled for this
                     year.
                     Remember, it is about keeping ourselves and our loved ones safe.

                     Our District Governor team were extremely lucky to have managed a weekend together
                     on Aug 14 -15 for our first Council of Governors meeting in Wellington. This was a full
                     on couple of days and a great opportunity to get to know each other better. I will share
                     some of the outcomes from these two days as I visit clubs.
                     (Club visits have been a casualty of COVID, but those I have missed will be
                     rescheduled as soon as possible.)

                     Congratulations to Ignatius Soffeni-Williams (Sponsored by NP Pakeke) for his 3rd
                     placing in the Young Speech Maker competition held in Wellington. Germaine Grewal,
In this Bulletin     (sponsored by NP Pakeke) also presented his speech. Both young men attend Francis
                     Douglas Memorial College in New Plymouth.
Message from DG      Thank you to those who have put their names forward to attend ELLI this year.
From the Editor      Demand was over whelming and some of you may have missed out. We are exploring
                     other options before the end of the Lions year.

Cabinet Members      As we wait in quiet anticipation, to emerge from Level 3 to Level 2 and hopefully back
                     to ‘normal’ by Christmas take the time to check in with yourself and with others,
Trivia               honestly, about how you and they, are feeling. There is no right or wrong way to
District Vacancies   approach this new normal. Kindness does matter. Find compassion for yourselves and
                     for others, and practice gratitude when you find it. Spare a thought for others less
Youth                fortunate, where COVID -19 is widespread, in Auckland, Fiji, Sydney or further afield.

                     I wish you all well in the coming weeks and look forward to being able to catch up with
What’s happening     you soon, at your meetings.

...from the Editor.
                      Hi all,

                     I hope that this bulletin finds you well. We are again going through
                     some trying and difficult times. It does help to find the little life
                     nuggets and hold on to them. Let’s stay positive and recognise the
                     small blessing that come our way.
Thank you for all the positive feedback for the Contact up to now, I do enjoy compiling
it. Please keep sending items if you want something in the Contact. If I have forgotten
something, please remind me for the next edition.

On the next page you will find info for an exciting opportunity for us Lions. Please read it.

We need more members and awareness out in public could help us grow our
membership numbers.

In this edition we continue introducing 2 more 202D Cabinet Members, keep the blurbs
and possibly a photo coming.

All that’s left to say is: stay safe, be kind, keep up the good work and enjoy this edition.

                                             The network of monitors/displays is rela vely small at the moment and could use a
                                             boost. This is where we rely on everyone to help iden fy loca ons and talk to the
                                             owners about hos ng a monitor/display and help promote a good cause. The
                                             monitor, controller and bracket are supplied by myself at no cost.
                                             We would also rely on a handy person to be able to mount the unit. Units will be
                                             shipped to the par cipa ng Lions Club.

                                             What happens when these units are installed?
                                             The way to finance this network of displays, is through adver sing. This adver sing
                                             will be displayed between the promo onal informa on from our Lions Clubs.

                                             Adver sing Fundraiser
                                             Not all monies raised will go towards the covering of costs. We have decided that if a
                                             Lions Club sells adver sing on this network, 40% of the adver sing amount will go
                                             back to the Club and 10% will be donated on the Clubs behalf to LCIF.
                                             So, you can see this becomes a very valuable project as it promotes and creates
                                             awareness for Lions, is a bit of a fundraiser and helps finance the units.

                                             Content
                                             We can display just about anything. Currently the playlists are made up of slides or
                                             presenta ons. Content must be a good mix of material to make people look and
                                             evoke interest. This could be:

                                             Funding
                                             VDG Stephen Barr has applied for some funding available to help create content
                                             which will certainly help. I was not planning to charge for the crea ng of Lions
                                             promo onal content and see it as part of my voluntary community service but am
                                             very thankful for any funding available.
                                             I will try to come along to zone and club visits when I can. If you in the mean me like

Who are our 2021/22 Cabinet Members?

                      This month the spotlight is on:
                                                                                              ?
                  My Lions journey started in 2010 when I joined the Eltham Lions club.

                                                                                              ?
                  In 2011 I became 3rd VP to then club president Megan England. In
                  2014 I served as president. I was then club secretary for three years. In
                  that me I found zone mee ngs a great way to learn more about Lions
                  and how other clubs operated. In 2019 I became chairman of Zone 5
                  which gave me more opportunity to learn. Last year I was editor of
                  District 202D CONTACT Bulle n where I got to know more about all the
                  clubs in the district. In April this year I a ended the Advance Lions
  Llew Eynon      Leadership Ins tue (ALLI) training which I recommend to anybody who
                  gets the chance. I hope I can pass on some of what I have learned in my
                  GLT role.

                  Hello fellow Lions
                  They say if you want something done, ask a busy person. If this is the
                  case, I could suggest I'm the woman for the job of Zone 6 Chair this
                  year!
                  I'm an owner/manager of a busy Cafe/Pizzaria, Pekaren, in Bell Block. I
                  work part- me at Rampage Fitness gyms (both in New Plymouth and

  Lisa Weston
                  Bell Block), and am Nunu (grandmother) to Marley5 and Caius 1 (of all
                  my roles I have to say this is currently my favourite one). I also
                  volunteer at both the TSB Showplace and the 4th Wall Theatre, so I get
                  to enjoy many fine theatre and music events, which are my passions.
                  When I do find some free me I enjoy reading, walking barefoot on the
                                                                                              ?
                  beach and spending me with our 3 small dogs (2 Griffons and a
                  Chihuahua). When Shane is home we like to dine out when we can, and
                  enjoy the wonderful restaurants and cafes that New Plymouth has to
                  offer.
                  Wishing you all a wonderful and produc ve year in Lions.
                  Lisa

  MD202 NATIONAL
YOUNG SPEECHMAKER
   CONTEST 2021:

What an impressive group of eight young adults (17-18yrs) that attended the nals of the National
Speechmakers Contest in Wellington, held at the Wellington Hospital's Auditorium on Saturday 14th
August.

This was my rst time attending and hopefully will not be the last. We had students from Hawkes Bay,
New Plymouth and all the way down to Invercargill.

All topics by the contestants were their own choices, ranging from Racism to the Power of Truth. All
speakers without exception spoke extremely well and it quickly became obvious as to why they were
chosen to represent their Districts. Some were able to speak by using cue cards while others managed
to speak directly without any notes. The speeches were well researched and crafted and kept the
audience of about 30 spellbound.

I was so glad that I decided to attend this event but was very surprised to see the poor turnout of Lions
members supporting this event. One couple had been attending this contest every year since the very
rst one and said how there use to be 200 plus in attendance. We need to remember that these students
aren't only their representing themselves and their School but also Lions with which this contest is for.
This is a great event and one that I urge you to attend at some time in the future.

We were fortunate to have 2 young men there representing Francis Douglas School and District 202D.
For their prepared speech Germaine was dressed in a colourful Indian Dupatta – used it to express his
sense of identity and how each coloured thread worked in harmony with other coloured threads. We
need to co-exist with our differences – how would we stand out if we are all the same? Ignatius
delivered a very emotional speech on racism, we are all the some apart from skin colour – same hopes,
same dreams, same food etc needs. Same blood colour. Racism is a grown-up's disease! Diversity is not
a threat.

The impromptu speech topic was “As soon as I….” Both boys managed this topic in their own special
way.

The results were 1st Place - Mia Hollingsworth from Invercargill
                  nd
                 2 Place – Rhea Ratgali from Dunedin
                 3rd Place – Ignatius Sofeni-Williams from New Plymouth.

                                                                        September 2021

In the morning Tom calls to his boss:
 – Good morning, boss, unfortunately, I’m
not coming to work today. I’m really sick.
I got a headache, stomach ache, and my
both hands and legs hurt, so I’m not
coming into work.”
 The boss replies:
 – You know Tom; I really need you today.
When I feel like this I go to my wife and
tell her to give me sex. That makes me
feel better, and I can go to work. You
should try that.
 2 hours later Bob calls:
 – Boss, I followed your advice, and I feel
great! I’ll be at work soon. By the way,
you got a nice house.

A woman walking down the city sidewalk
with an adult lion is confronted by a
police officer

He: "Lady, you must take that animal
directly to the zoo!"

She: "I will do that right away, officer."

The next day, the officer is exasperated
to see her and the lion walking down the
sidewalk again.

He: "I told you to get that animal to the
zoo!"

She: "That was yesterday. Today we are
going to the beach."

                                 LCIF District Coordinator update

                         Gree ngs from a Palmerston North in lockdown – familiar to all of us.
                         This situa on is affec ng our lives in everything we do, including our Lions Clubs
                         ac vi es and our ability to donate to our Founda on.
                         The only way LCIF can operate is with the support of Lions and Lions Clubs. The
                         Disaster relief packages issued worldwide by the Founda on came to a close
                         some months ago. However, as our Cons tu onal Area VII has not make many
                         applica ons for Disaster Relief and Grants over recent years, the door has been
le open for us to donate to Disaster Relief within our own Area – primarily to help and support
Indonesia. Any dona on to the Disaster Relief Fund will be eligible for Campaign 100, Melvin Jones
Fellowship and Lions Share recogni on. Any Club or individual dona ng are asked to include a note with
the dona on, sta ng that they are responding to Covid-19 relief efforts in Indonesia. Also please let
either Leo Danz or myself know so that we can pass the informa on on to our Regional Development
Manager in Chicago to make sure dona ons are tagged correctly. Remember dona ons can be for any
amount.
Thank you to those Clubs and individuals who have already donated this year.
It is hoped that during the second round of Zone mee ngs, we will be able to meet with Club LCIF
Coordinators and update them of LCIF ac vi es locally, regionally and interna onally. For those Clubs
who haven't as yet appointed a LCIF coordinator, please consider this as we want as many Clubs as
possible represented at our gatherings. As soon as a Coordinator is appointed, let me know so I can get
them on my mailing list (and remove the President – surely an incen ve to many of our busy Presidents).
Remember any dona on (Club or Individual) to LCIF is to relieve suffering for someone, somewhere and
it was YOU who made that happen.
Your friend in LCIF

The Kindness Ma ers Award deadline is now extended to the 30th of September for entries to be into me by and I
get one entry from our District to Wendy Goodwin in November, so there will be seven entries to Mul ple
District. The categories have been extended to include Disaster, Humanitarian and Youth a-long with Diabetes,
Vision, Child Cancer, Environment and Hunger, I look forward to seeing many entries from clubs to promote all
the great things we do in serving our community. The entry forms were in the last Contact, but Tobi, Brenda or
myself can send you this again if needed.
Mul ple Districts GST is pushing the “We serve” not the We Fundraise awareness for Presidents, a lot of clubs are
fundraising furiously and not doing the service which is what Lions is about, just rese ng the club mindset about
what we do and why.
                               th
It is Wig Wednesday on the 8 of September, encourage your clubs to wear wigs and raise funds for Child Cancer,
have fun with it, do something different for your tea mee ng, it is a great cause.
We are being encouraged to put ar cles in the Lion Magazine to promote our service and projects to raise
awareness of Lions in our communi es, remember to have your photos separate to the ar cle so they can fit
them into the pages of the magazine.
Requests are being made for the spectacles, these are going to the Pacific Islands, Northern Australia and now
South Auckland, remember, not bifocals or scratched and they don't want the cases either. Repurpose the cases, I
am sure you can think of things they can be used for.
Keep up with the aluminium, and old coins to Resene for Heads up for Kids. Thank you to the clubs that took the
four huge posters to adver se Heads up for Kids, have some informa on near by about what Heads up does and
be aware that grants are available to promote leadership development , camps and school ac vi es through the
Heads up for Kids program.
It is Christmas Cake me again, another great drive for Lions along with the Lions Mints.
There is an ini a ve star ng in Invercargill with rowers in March, they intend to row 40 kms a day up the East
Coast to the top of the North Island. They hope to raise a huge amount of money for Child Cancer, Life Saving,
Starship and the Skin Clinic ini a ve which is been inves gated for feasibility at present. Even though they wont
be in our District, we can help by having row-a-thons, hos ng Olympic rowers for talks, promo ng the events
being held on the East Coast etc.
The really great news is the Wellington Children's Hospital Playscape Rehabilita on fund is nearly there, only a
few thousand le to raise, maybe none by now, this is a huge effort by 202M and 202D, thank you all for your
contribu ons, $500,000.00 is a lot of money but it is an awesome cause for our children, grandchildren and great
grandchildren.
Please do the repor ng of your club ac vi es, your hours of work and the number of people involved, it is not
hard once you are registered and can access your MyLion, remember if your ac vity you want to enter into
awards is not recorded it is not eligible. We need this for the future of Lions as well, our service is noted over seas
and the huge funding required by LCI is determined by what we show we do.
Sadly we are in lockdown at this me, so stay home stay safe, use zoom mee ngs and keep in contact with
people, sharing is caring, having a conversa on when you are alone and lonely cheers our hearts, we can s ll
serve, but in different ways.
Keep up the good work every one, Daphne Sinclair-Holley, Global Service Team

Lions Christmas cakes – A perfect festive tradition
Back in 1971, Ernest Adams, New Zealand’s premier baker, created a special Christmas cake recipe exclusive to
Lions – the cakes were moist, full of fruit, did not crumble, had a guaranteed shelf life of no less than two years and,
most importantly, tasted delicious.

Now, more than 50 years on, the only change is the refreshed packaging. The Lions Christmas cakes are still
baked by Ernest Adams using the original tried, tested, proved and unique Lions Christmas Cake recipe. Lions
Christmas Cakes are available only from this website OR Lions Clubs and Lions Clubs’ members all over New
Zealand.

Our thanks to Goodman Fielder for their supporting our Christmas Cake drive
