The Thurmont Lions Club is in the Spotlight!

The Thurmont Lions Club was the subject of the Lions International Magazine "Spotlight" feature this January. The feature discusses the membership of the club, a number of projects (including the Trolley Trail and our sandwich and other food sales), our two Leo Clubs, and several of our community activities. See the article.

Being recognized in the Lions International Magazine is an honor. The magazine is published for the 1.35 million Lions Club members in 21 languages and in 32 official editions.


Thurmont Lions Club Members treated to Luncheon!

To show their appreciation for our support of their school, Lewistown Elementary staff and students held a luncheon for TLC members on March 22. In addition to the delicious lunch, the students made beautiful placemats and centerpieces for the tables. The highlights also included a tour of the school led by the children and a video of the students singing a delightful song thanking us. It was a wonderful treat!


The Thurmont Lions Club Helped Replace a Leaking Roof

The home of a local family is now dry. A family, consisting of a great grandmother, a grandmother and a great granddaughter, was suffering from extensive water leaks into their kitchen and the child's bedroom. The leaks were so extensive that the child’s bedroom was unuseable and the kitchen ceiling had fallen down. A number of local groups and volunteers, including the Thurmont Lions Club, worked together to replace the leaking roof. See more.
