DG Barb’s Message
Greetings Lions, Lioness and Leo’s of District A1. I am looking forward to
visiting you and working with you over the next year and beyond. VDGs
Dan Armstrong and Val Burningham are helping me with the visits so they
are meeting more Lions in our District.
I want to encourage you to work extra hard at keeping your members, if
they aren’t at meetings please check on them, if they are moving, make
sure they know of active Lion’s clubs in their new area – Retention is a
very important part of having strong viable clubs.
You will notice that the Cabinet meetings are moving around a bit both
location and time, so everyone has a chance to attend a couple of
meetings.
Different Committee Chairs will be reporting at each meeting, if there is a
committee you would like to know more about, just send me or the
committee chair an email and we will work at getting you the answers
you need.
Lots of Charter anniversaries in District A1 this year – Strathroy-Caradoc –
10 years; Hyde Park and Melbourne – 40 years; Glencoe – 45 years; Port
Stanley – 60 years; Belle River – 75 years and Windsor – celebrating their
Centennial – 100 years.
You will hear a lot about 2020 the Canadian Centennial celebration –
watch for more information in the District Bulletin.
Keep taking chances and having fun – yours in Lionism
                                 DG Barb

The Lions of Ailsa Craig wish to congratulate their
member Lion Barb Tuxford on her position as this

Upon Thy Lions As They Call
May All Our Ties Of Friendship Be
Forever Strengthened Lord By Thee.

Lion’s Toast

Not above you
Not beneath you
But with you

National Anthems and Lions Grace

O Canada

O Canada, our home and native land
True patriot love in all of us command
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
the true north strong and free
From far and wide, O Canada
We stand on guard for thee,
God keep our land, glorious and free,
O Canada we stand on guard for thee
O Canada we stand on guard for thee.

Star Spangled Banner

Oh say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming.
And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there.
Oh say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Lion’s Grace

     Lord-we thank you for the food we are about to receive
     And as we all gather here this evening
     We pause to offer up this prayer
     Where Lions (Lioness & Leo’s) meet be present lord
     To weld our hearts in one accord
     To do thy will, lord, make us strong
     To aid the weak, and right the wrong
