SERVICE PROJECTS & COMMITTEES
Scholarship Committee
Our club goal for spring, is to continue to award student scholarships for outstanding achievement in the LGBT local student communities. Our committee is currently working to determine the recipient pool, award criteria, amount and other parameters that will determine the structure of this program. This committee is led by club members who are current or retired educators and administrators and is open to any club member interested in shaping this important community outreach program.
Committee Chair: Lion Cheri
Visalia Band Review Committee
Each year, on a Saturday in October, the 6 Lions clubs of Visalia co-host the High School and Jr High Band competition. It is held at the Visalia Stadium. A morning parade begins the day where we, sell donuts, water and programs along the route, hold signs to direct the bands and assist in any way we can. Later we staff the concession stand and gates into the stadium, and assist as needed. This is a really fun event each year and we need every Lion to make it a success. There are always shifts available. Mark it on your calendar! This is a fund-raiser and community outreach program.
Committee Chair: Lion Diana
