The Lions are known for recognizing those who lead and participate in the many Kanata-Hazeldean Lions Club events and programs that we carry out for our community and especially for vision-related projects.
On June 10, Regional Chair Paul Riddell joined outgoing President Lion Peggy Feltmate in recognizing the work of members, both in 2013-14 and over several years. These included (see photos, from top down).
Lion Naomi Nakamura, the Judge Brian Stevenson Fellowship for her stalwart work as our Secretary and her innovative fund raiser and community fun event, the Scrapbooking Days.
Life Memberships to our new members over the past two year. Pictured between Lion Peggy and Lion Paul (bookends) are, left to right, Rick Mansell, Carol Spratt, Liz Christie, Henni Helleman, Hans Helleman, Richard McDonald and Cheryl McDonald
Lion Hans Helleman, Lion of the Year for his leadership and participation in many activities in 2013-14, especially his work with canteen events, hockey fun activities and the Major Projects Committee.
Lion Linda Leinan, the Helen Keller Award for consistent participation and dedication to Lions Projects, especially those with vision-related aspect, since she joined us six years ago.
The Keller and Stevenson awards come with $500 donations to International Lions programs that help people the world over.
Congratulations to all. Okay, back to work!!
