North Adams Lions Holding Membership Info Session

Print Story | Email Story
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The North Adams Lions Club is hosting a free membership information session on Wednesday, April 29, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the Bounti Fare in Adams.
 
The informal gathering is open to anyone curious about getting involved in local service in the North Adams area.
 
Founded on the motto "We Serve," Lions Clubs International is the world’s largest service club organization, with more than 1.4 million members serving communities across the globe. The North Adams chapter has upheld that tradition locally for nearly 90 years.
 
"We want people to see firsthand what Lions is all about," said Kate Gigliotti, president of the North Adams Lions Club. "You don’t need a big-time commitment to make a real difference — just a few hours a month can go a long way in our community. We’d love for our neighbors from Williamstown and North Adams to come, ask questions, and find out if Lions is a good fit for them."
 
Attendees at the April 29 session will have the opportunity to:
  • Meet current club members and hear about local projects
  • Learn how the club connects to Lions Clubs International's worldwide network
  • Discover how club projects support vision, seniors, youth, and community needs
  • Understand what membership involves, including time commitment, dues, and flexibility
  • Explore the personal benefits of membership: service, leadership, and friendship
Light refreshments will be provided. There is no obligation to join, the event is simply an opportunity to learn, connect, and explore how you might contribute to the North Adams community. RSVP to NorthAdamsLionsClub@gmail.com.
