The Fairfax Host Lions Club sponsored another local competition as part of LCI’s international peace poster contest, and we are proud to display the work of two young artists who won the club’s contest.

The Annual Bland Music Scholarship Program was established in 1948 to assist and promote cultural and educational opportunities for the musically talented youth of Virginia.  The program consists of elimination contests starting at club level and continuing through “State Final Contest”.

The Fairfax Host Lions Club will host a club level competition on Sunday, February 19, 2012 at the Old Town Hall (3999 University Drive). Registration forms (below) must be received by Friday, February 3, 2012.  Only the first 10 entries in each category (instrumental/vocal) will be accepted.

On December 13, Fairfax Lions donated 28 units of blood.  To date, blood drives sponsored by the Fairfax Host Lions Club have resulted in an astounding total of 2,966 units of blood donated!

Over 21% of the club’s members regularly donate blood, whether through the club’s drives or through other blood drives at their place of work or the Red Cross.  If you’re not among the regular donors, please consider coming out to the next blood drive—we’ll post a notice online when it’s scheduled.

Thanks for Lion Elden Wright for coordinating the drives, the American Red Cross for stabbing our arms, and Providence Presbyterian Church and its members for the location and support.
