We are the Lions… And we serve. Who are the Acton Lions?
The Acton Lions Club is a member of Lions District 4-L1, Lions Multiple District 4 and Lions Clubs International. We were Chartered in 1983 and have sponsored the Acton Leos club, a service club for the youth of the community. We are the only service club in Acton designed for men and women. The club atmosphere is friendly and congenial. Each of our members enjoys the many opportunities to be an important voice in the community. Our idea of a possible member is someone whom you would freely invite into your home.
Membership is by invitation to men and women 18 years of age and older interested in serving in the family of Lions International. After attending 3 meetings or functions, a person seeking membership must be sponsored by an existing member. After meeting attendance requirements, the prospective member is voted upon by the Board of Directors. Dues are $75 per year and there is a $25 initiation fee for new members.
What is required of a member?
Come to meetings when you can, help with as many service projects as possible, and plan to work our major fundraisers. You must always have a positive attitude, promote Lionism in the community, and most of all – have FUN!
Meetings
The Acton Lions club meets on the first and third Wednesdays of each month at the Acton Community Club at 7:30 pm. Dinner and drinks are available.

About Lions Clubs
Lions are more than 1.4 million strong….men and women….young and old. You will find us in more than 180 countries and geographical areas from the hinterlands of Australia and Brazil to thriving urban centers like New York and Milan. We speak dozens of languages and vary in nature and customs.
We share a common spirit. Since our beginning in 1917, we have been united in a single cause” helping those less fortunate. We are tackling the tough problems like blindness and drug abuse as well as diabetes awareness and finding help and training for the deaf, disabled, under privileged and the elderly. In fact, whatever the community needs to make life better, we’re here to help.
We are the youngest major social service organization, yet we have grown to be the world’s largest. We are succeeding because we embrace all those committed to building a brighter future for the world and themselves. And, with a new generation of enlightened members, Lions clubs are working smarter and faster with greater commitment than ever before.
