Lions Shed at Woodside
The Lions Shed at Woodside continues to serve on average 150+ customers on Friday mornings and Saturday mornings. 80% of all funds raised are returned to the local community, while the remainder supports Lions Australia Foundations and disaster relief.
Coming up at the Shed is a $1 book and DVD sale, featuring 60s and 70s Classic Sci Fi & Fantasy books, and a fundraising BBQ sausage sizzle in support of the Australian Lions Diabetes Foundation.
The Lions Shed is located near the Adelaide Hills Swimming Centre, off Nairne Road, at Woodside.
Instrumental Scholarship
The Lions Club of Onkaparinga support an annual scholarship in conjunction with the Lobethal Harmony Club. Auditions are held in September and this year the winner of the scholarship was Riley Love, a 15 year old student from Littlehampton. Well done Riley!
New Youth Service Project
Lion Corry Moors has instigated a new service project under the Lions Global Cause of Youth. Known as the Lions Young Carers Support Project, this project supports the work of the Young Carers Network across the Adelaide Hills, based at Woodside. A needs assessment has been undertaken with Coordinator Mellissa Clarken, identifying a number of ways Lions can support this network and ensure that young carers have some fun along the way.
Corn Hole Challenge
Our next Corn Hole Challenge with the Woodside Bowls Club is on Sunday 24th November 2024 at Simon Tolley Cellar Door at Woodside commencing at 1.00pm
Puppy Sally
Sally was born on the 25th July 2024 and was immediately enrolled in the Australian Lions Hearing Dog program, that is based at Verdun in the Adelaide Hills. After the success of our first hearing dog, Garth, members were keen to sponsor another puppy. Sally is named after Lion Sally and we will be eagerly watching her progress over the next 12 months.
