1939 - (Our 85th year of Community Service) - 2025
We were chartered in November of 1939 and have provided help and served those in need in the community ever since. Our club is part of Lions Clubs International, the world’s largest service organization, with more than 1.4 million members in hundreds of countries and geographical areas. The proceeds from our fund-raisers are used to provide aid for the blind, visually-handicapped, deaf and hearing-impaired as well as many other worthwhile causes. Current members of the Calumet City Lions Club represent more than 1,000 years of community service through Lionism.

JANUARY
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Join us at the VFW on Tuesday, January 14, as we "KICK OFF" (hint, hint!) the new year at the first General Meeting of 2025. Fellowship at 6 p.m.; the fun begins at 6:30. You don't want to miss it! So, save the date and don't be late, because it's going to be GRRREAT!
Speaking of great, what a GREAT way to welcome in the New Year by announcing that Lion Chuck and Lady Lion Pam Eggebrecht are grandparents again! They welcomed grandson Graham Nicholas Eggebrecht into our world on Jan. 3, 2025, at 10:51 a.m. The future Lion weighed in at 8 lb., 4 oz., and stands (well, maybe not just yet) 19.5 in.
SPOILER ALERT: They're gonna spoil him along with his proud parents, Nick & Katie Eggebrecht.
Congrats, Lion Chuck & Pam and the whole Eggrebrecht clan!!!
Got books or magazines? Our Little Libraries could use some. Contact Lion Denny to donate.
Happy Birthday_________

Just Wondering:
-- How do you get off a non-stop flight?
-- How come noses run and feet smell?
-- Why is it called a TV set when there's only one?
-- Why do we put cups in the dishwasher and dishes in the cupboard?
