NOTES ABOUT CPLC

Central Park Lions currently have thirty members in good standing who are active throughout the community.
The club was chartered on May 23, 1969 and originally met at Central Park Mall; hence the name.
Our biggest project is a contract bingo operation. Every penny that we make in that operation is donated to various organizations in our area and includes programs for schools. Our club has donated over $100,000 to these organizations, as well as donations to Lions Clubs International for the Sight First program for the blind.
Central Park Lions support over forty community service programs, including large donations to Any Baby Can, St. Peter's Home, St. Joseph's Home, Jefferson Outreach and other organizations. In addition, the club provides college scholarships.
We are assisting the Winston School through the Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic program and are in the process of approaching the school on starting a Leo Club with the students.
We have both male and female members in our club and we are always interested in finding new members who are service oriented and have a desire to help the less fortunate in our city. Anyone interested in joining our club can contact our membership director, Dennis Alvey at 210-404-2620 or President Tom Gruidl at 210-496-3352. We look forward to hearing from you.
