Why Become a Lion


Why I joined the Lions Club

I am newer member of the Lion's Club, but my husband has been a Lion for 30 years. This last 10 years, I have so enjoyed being a part of the community, I have learned how to give vision and hearing tests, packed baskets of food and gifts for the needy at Thanksgiving and Christmas, worked at the special Olympics to get glasses for all the participants that needed them. I have loved every minute of it!

Now, I am getting ready to start a Leo Lion's Club at the local high school, Rocky Mountain High, and I am really looking forward to getting this next generation involved in giving back to the community. I think it is a great way to "train up our children". If you live locally and would like to be a part of a wonderful service organization, please let me know. We are a small club and definitely looking for new members.


Top 10 Reasons to Become a Lion

When asked, most Lions will
say they joined a Lions club to
serve their communities. But
there are many other reasons
to be a Lion. Here are the
Top Ten:
1. Help your Community-First
and foremost, Lions love to
serve. If you enjoy reaching
out and helping others, Lions is
for you.
2. Learn Valuable Skills and
Develop Talents-With every
new project there is an opportunity
to learn a new skill or
discover a talent you didn’t
know you had.
3. Make an Impact on People’s
Lives-The feeling you get
from making a difference is
like no other.
4. Learn to be a Leader-Lion
Clubs provides training and
opportunity to develop leadership
skills. You can be a
club officer, chair a committee,
or work with youth.
5. Network with Business People-
Who better to do business
with than Lions who share your
ideals and passions.
6. Energize your Life-Staying
busy and active is key for
body,mind and soul at any age.
7. It’s Good for You-
Volunteering reduces stress
and makes you healthier.
8. Have Fun-Who doesn’t
need more fun in their lives?
9. Meet New People-You’ll
meet people from all walks of
life and work with them side
by side.
10. Make New Friends-Lions
in your community and around
the world become your
friends, your family.

Cancun Trip with Arbonne, 2009

Cancun Trip, October, 2009 With Arbonne International Earned this awesome trip! Pyramids at Chichen Itza Gorgeous day with awesome friends! I have never felt humidity like this, though!!! It was crazy! To walk outside and be as wet as if I just got out of the shower! Why blow dry my hair? I did give up by the last day! The last day of the trip, I totally enjoyed the hammock and being utterly indulgent. Why does it take 4 days before you really start to relax??? That is just NOT right! :-) I am so grateful to work with such an awesome company as Arbonne! I love the concept of having healthy products, an environmentally friendly company and the most amazing women you can imagine. One thing that has hit me really hard this past 2 months of personal growth and coaching etc is that the greatest blessings my Arbonne business has brought me are 1. the friendships with incredible women and 2. Learning my own value and self worth. Why have I always doubted me? I am learning that I have a lot of...

August 4th, 2009

Hello again! I just wanted to say thank you to all my fabulous friends, business partners and clients who so actively helped me earn my trip to Cancun this year! You are all incredible and awesome! I have been in Arbonne almost 3 years and one thing I will pass on to any of you with goals and dreams, WRITE THEM DOWN! Be intentional! This is the first year I paid the $30 registration fee last December and every month set about doing what I needed to do to stay on track to earn this trip! You can achieve what you set your mind to! Of course, you must follow through with lots of activity and personal growth reading and time. Our minds are incredibly powerful, though, never ever doubt that! Our summer is going well. Goodness, the kids will be back to school at the end of the month. Oh, and Victor and I have our 10th anniversary coming up this month! Wow! 10 years flew by! I hope you are all well. Blessings and love to you :-)
