Where There is a Need, There is a Lion! Please help us to continue our service!
Please help us to continue our service to those in need! We are unable to do our largest fundraiser called 'LionsFest' due to the pandemic. LionsFest is our annual 4-day event over Labor Day Weekend, and we regret needing to cancel it. We serve! Our service includes providing scholarships, reducing hunger, donating eye glasses and hearing aids, transporting eye tissue, and supporting local organizations including police, fire, Legion Post 434, Oak Creek Community Center, library and city. Learn more about what we do at oakcreeklions.com. You can donate here on our website or on our Facebook page. All donations are appreciated - thank you for your support! |
Labor Day Weekend LionsFest 2020 has been canceled!
It is with regret and disappointment that the Oak Creek Lions Club must announce the cancellation of our 2020 LionsFest. We waited until the 11th hour to meet, discuss and analyze the current status of the virus situation hoping for an improvement or a positive trend. At the end of the day, we realized that under current circumstances, a safe festival for our members, our hundreds of volunteers and especially our patrons could not possibly occur. We highly value our reputation and stature with the public and with our beloved City of Oak Creek, along with the health and safety of those in this city. To put any of this in jeopardy goes well against what the Oak Creek Lions stand for. This is the first time since 1959 that Oak Creek has not had a LionsFest. Over the years we have raised well over 2.5 million dollars that was donated back into hundreds of charitable causes. So this is obviously heartbreaking for us. The needs of the many always outweigh the needs of the few. Life will go on and the LionsFest will be back bigger, stronger and more determined in 2021. We promise!
