The Vergennes Area Lions Club has been a member of Lions Club International since 1954 . The Vergennes Area Lions Club was chartered in 1954, sponsored by the neighboring Middlebury Lions Club. The International Association of Lions Clubs logged 20 members into the record book when our club was first established and we currently have over 60 members!
This club meets twice monthly and works year round to provide service to the communities in northern Addison County. We pride ourselves on growing in membership and meeting the needs of our community.Every dollar raised by the Lions goes back in to the community.
Our many projects contribute funds for high school scholarships, eye glasses and hearing aids, ramp installation, food drives, winter fuel needs, and more. The Lions work in partnership with other not for profits including the Vergennes Rotary, American Legion Post # 14, and local food shelf to meet the needs of people of all ages Lions serve because they share a core belief in service to their community.
