WHO AND WHAT IS YOUR PISMO BEACH CITIES LION CLUB
Pismo Beach Cities Lion Club was established in 1945. Our Charter President Joe Rose was also the first mayor of the City Of Pismo beach. President Rose was instrumental in establishing a solid relationship between the Pismo Beach Lions Club and our community of Pismo Beach. Under his direction, the Club helped re-charter the City of Pismo Beach, placed street signs and house numbers enabling the U.S. Post Office to begin delivery of mail to homes. He was instrumental in the construction of the Mary G. Harrington Park, the Ira Lease Park, and the Ira Boosinger Park in Pismo Heights. Joe served for fourteen years as Pismo Beach City Mayor and City Councilman.
We have had many great Presidents serve Pismo Beach Lions Club and currently in the 2014 year, his daughter is carrying out the family tradition and became our first woman President. Keeping our motto, "Find a need and fill it" , Connie helps direct the club and honor the Lions tradition of community service.
