Stayton Lions Club has been a chartered member of Lions Clubs International and serving the community since September 15th, 1938. Like all Lions, our motto is "We Serve".
In addition to other community projects, Lions Clubs have taken up the challenge given to them by Helen Keller in 1925 to be "knights of the blind in the crusade against darkness". As a result, sight and hearing support is at the forefront of all Lions Clubs activities, including the vision screenings we perform annually for all students in the North Santiam School District elementary and middle schools.
For more information on the Stayton Lions Club, please view through our other pages linked at the top left and contact us at staytonlionsclub@gmail.com with any questions. This new website will have updated and expanded information soon so please check back! We look forward to hearing from you and welcome new members!
