2025/2026 

******************************************************

The Hampstead Lions Club is looking forward to the second half of their year – and is planning many events currently.

While the club is currently accepting submissions for Lions Club Scholarships; accepting and loaning out medical equipment as needed; collecting and recycling eye glasses for those in need, and so much more!

In April, they will host their second Paint Night Fundraiser event at the Hampstead American Legion from 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. April 15. The event, in coordination with Cr8, will feature creating your own poppy-covered wine glass and wine bottle filled with fairy lights. The cost is $35 per person. If you’d like to register (space is limited), email cr8itwithstacey@gmail.com or text 443-605-5798.

The weekend of Mother’s Day is typically the Lions Annual Flower Sale; more details to come on this event as they finalize details.

Now make sure you have May 16, 2026, marked on your calendars! It’s the 52^nd Annual Hampstead Day along Main Street from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m.

The committee members are working hard to organize this event – one of the biggest in the county and definitely the largest event for the Hampstead Lions to put together. The event requires months of preparation that include working with the Town of Hampstead, Hampstead Police Department and the Public Works team; recruiting live entertainment; events for children; gathering donations for the auction, advertising/marketing, soliciting sponsorships, coordinating to ensure adequate accommodations for those attending including port-a-pots and shuttle service to and from Coppermine’s PantherPlex; plotting vendors, mapping out the event; recruiting volunteers and so much more.

Currently the Lions are receiving vendor registrations (visit https://e-clubhouse.org/sites/hampsteadmd/page-7.php and click on the registration link for more information). There will be more than 100 vendors, live entertainment, a dog show, lots of great options for food and drinks, a kids zone, silent auction and much more.

In the fall, the Lions will be in attendance during the Annual Hampstead Fall Fest event on Oct. 10; and on Oct. 17, will be working with Weis Markets to host a food drive to collect items for the food pantry at NESAP. More details for these events will be shared at a later date.
