Recycling Used Eyeglasses

 Our club participates in the Lions collection of, and worldwide recycling of, used eyeglasses.

We met to sort them into prescription glasses, reading glasses, and specialty glasses. That facilitates moving them through the various recycling programs.

...and, of course we had some fun in the process.

Peace Poster Contest

Lion Lisa Cassidy, one of our newest Idaho Springs Lions, stepped up to coordinate this year’s Lions Clubs International Peace Poster Contest with Audrey Goodman, art teacher at King-Murphy Mountain School in Evergreen.

This annual LCI program has inspired millions of students in over 200 countries for more than 35 years. It encourages young people to express their vision of peace through creativity, imagination, and art—helping them understand that peace begins with each of us.

This year’s theme, “Together As One,” sparked incredible creativity among the 31 students who participated. Their artwork reflected unity, compassion, and global connection. Judges said choosing winners was extremely difficult!

🏅 Winners:
🥇 Finley Gardner
🥈 Miriran Manwaran
