Flaming Fall Foliage Fund Raiser

Each year the Lions Club helps out with the Flaming Fall Foliage Relay Race, as a fund-raiser for the club.

Preparations for the race started at 3:30 am. Here Lions Anne and Carolyn check in some of the first racers.

The racers kept coming, and Lions Anne and Carolyn kept checking them in. It's chilly up here in the mountains.

Of course, you can't have a race without a tee-shirt. Check-ins continue past dawn.

...and the racers are off!

Several members of the club volunteered to help with a cookout at the Lions camp for the handicapped in Woodland Park, CO.

2017 International Convention

The Idaho Springs Lions Club was represented at the International Convention in Chicago.

Lion President Mary and Lion Barb led the charge.

Our district was there in force, marching in the parade...

... including our Lion President Mary.

It was truly an international event!

And it was clearly taking place in Chicago, as an "El" came over the parade.
