Welcome

Welcome on behalf of the Hanover Lions Club!

The Hanover Lions Club was chartered in November 2008. In our first year of operations we have greatly enjoyed serving our community in a wide variety of ways at a number of different events. Presently we have 45 members. We are proud of the diversity of our group in age, occupation and gender, with as many female members as male.

In 2010 we will be at work again, repeating many of the sucessful events in which we were involved last year. Plans are already underway for Ribfest on July 24, 2010 at the Sights and Sounds festival, and the October Blast Elmination Draw and Dance featuring Oscar's Strut on October 2, 2010.

A highlight of 2010 will be A MOMENT FROZEN IN TIME, the premiere gala at the newly completed Hanover Regional Recreation Complex - The P & H Centre, on September 11, 2010. This event planned and hosted by our club will be a spectacular evening of celebration honouring all the wonderful people who helped to turn the dream of this new facility into a reality. There will be a Gourmet Dinner, a Silent Auction, and dancing to the music of Lulu's Roadhouse Band. 100% of the net proceeds of this event will be donated to the town's building fund for the new complex.

Please feel free to browse the information in this website to learn more about our club and the work of Lions Clubs internationally. You will find links to the Lions International website and many other resources for learning about and appreciating the reasons we have are so excited to be serving our community as Lions' Club members.

Presidents Message

The Hanover Lions Club is committed to increasing our role as a vibrant service club that contributes to the town of Hanover and the surrounding community.

To this end, one of our big projects is to sponsor at the "Gold" level the new Regional Recreation Complex. Please join us on September 11th, as we host the gala "A MOMENT FROZEN IN TIME", the first major event to be held in the P & H Centre. On this never-to-be-repeated occasion we will celebrate the completion of this amazing complex, that will serve Hanover and the surrounding area for many years to come. The evening will include a gourmet dinner, a silent auction, and a dance to the music of Lulu's Roadhouse Band. Please see our website: www.momentfrozen.ca for more current information.

In addition to the gala we have a number of other fundraising events all designed to give us the ability to help people in need, and to contribute to the worthwhile charitable activities of others.

We are always happy to welcome new members. As much as we want to work to the benefit of our community, we manage to have a lot of fun along the way too!. Please feel free to check this website from time to time as we will post details of upcoming events and progress reports on completed activities.

The motto of the International Lions Clubs is "We serve". Our club is hard working and capable and we hope to make a difference to many in the years to come by living up to this motto. Stay tuned....

Need Help?

Do you or your organization need assistance?

Lions members – men and women – provide immediate and sustained relief in time of disaster. We improve the quality of life in our local communities and countries worldwide by building parks and hospitals, tackling big problems like fundraising to contribute to new recreational facility or small problems such as a family who needs financial assistance to put a child into a sports program.

The Code of Ethics is a guideline for the personal values that each member should exemplify.

TO SHOW my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation for quality of service.

TO SEEK success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own self-respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable acts on my part.

TO REMEMBER that in building up my business it is not necessary to tear down another’s; to be loyal to my clients or customers and true to myself.

WHENEVER a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself.

TO HOLD friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one to another, but that true friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the spirit in which it is given.

ALWAYS to bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my state (province) and my community, and to give them my unswerving loyalty in word, act and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor and means.
