Rye Lions have participated in many projects and fundraisers over the years. Our biggest event is the annual car show held the third Sunday of September at Parson's Field. We also join with the Rye Fire Department to co-host the annual holiday parade in early December and provide refreshments at the Junior High gym during the awards presentation and visits with Santa Claus. In past years we have hosted horse shows, run Red Cross blood drives, participated in Rye Day, coordinated a town yard sale, worked roadside cleanup days, put on community ham and bean suppers, sold breakfast sandwiches on Little League opening day, and enjoyed various other fun activities with the community.
