About the Lyme - Old Lyme Lions
Since 1917, Lions clubs have offered people the opportunity to give something back to their communities. From involving members in projects as local as cleaning up an area park or as far-reaching as bringing sight to the world's blind, Lions clubs have always embraced those committed to building a brighter future for their community.
Here in southeast Connecticut, the Lyme – Old Lyme Lions have ever increasingly expanded upon the original goals and ideas set out by the original lions club back in 1917. Since formed in 1972 the Lyme - Old Lyme Lions have prided themselves on helping the community in every way possible. The dollars for scholars program, continues to aid graduating high school seniors, by providing a scholarship in attempt to aid their efforts in succeeding at their next level of education. In addition to encouraging and helping the youth, the Lyme – Old Lyme Lions consistently come to the aid of our elders. Today, in addition to their international SightFirst program, the Lyme – Old Lyme Lions extend their commitment to sight conservation through countless local efforts.
The annual visit of the sightmobile makes an effort to provide free quality vision testing for our community.
In conclusion, today, with more than 46,000 clubs in 193 countries and geographical areas, Lions have expanded their focus to help meet the ever-increasing needs of our global community. Our programs are continually changing to meet new needs and greater demands, but our mission has never wavered: "We Serve”.
