 The Wellington and District Lions Club is made up of women and men who are interested in serving the Wellington and area communities.  We are also interested in social interaction  and some members use the opportunity of membership as outlets for leadership.  One of our main activities is the sponsorship of the Wellington Lions Dragonboat Club and our annual Dragonboat Festival.

Wellington is a colorful, historic lakefront village of about 2000 in the County of Prince Edward.  Prince Edward County (THE County, as it is known locally) is located as a large peninsula in Lake Ontario on the Canadian side, more or less opposite Rochester, New York.  It is famous for Sandbanks Park and for the many outstanding wineries.

Lions are an international network of 1.3 million men and women in 205 countries and geographic areas who work together to answer the needs that challenge communities around the world.
