Emu Park Lions have been supporting the local Emu Park community since 1974. We know that we are very fortunate to live in one of the nicest parts of the world. While enjoying the fellowship of like minded people we come together to improve the lives of people less fortunate both here in Emu Park and around the world.
The Club supports our local youth by participating in annual Youth of the Year Quests, Peace Poster and Peace Essay competitions, and other youth activities as they arise. A breakfast is provided for the Emu Park State School students each Thursday, and Emu Park Lions participate in the Lions Eye Health Program’s national Children’s Vision Screening Program whereby trained screeners visit local schools to screen students for detection of any vision issues.
Emu Park Lions organise the Picnic Markets in Bell Park on the 3rd Sunday of each month, the annual Oktoberfest in late October, and Festival of the Wind about April or May of each year.
Each year we donate approximately $70,000 towards community. A few of our local organisations that have benefited include the Emu Park Primary School, the historical museum, school chaplaincy, SES, Coastguard, St Vincent’s de Paul Society, Salvation Army, Food Relief Cap Coast as well as many others.
Membership is open to all members of the community in good standing. We meet at the Lion’s Youth Shack, Hill Street, on the 1st Tuesday of the month at 7pm and the 4th Sunday of the month at 8am. Contact us via email at emuparklions@gmail.com or on our Emu Park markets phone 0407 178 011.
