Club President Mike Greeley, on June 15th, recognized three Club members for extraordinary accomplishments over the past year:
A Special Award for Excellence was presented to Lion Bill Szymanski, for achieving his personal goal of donating 71 “Power Packs” during the Club “70-for-70” campaign. Bill’s achievement was possible only by his exemplary dedication of time and personal resources, and his desire to support Club charitable work helping others.
A Melvin Jones Fellowship Award was presented to Club 2VP Jim Kaplan for his creative and sustained leadership over the past year to keep club operations on track, and members excited to engage, during the year of Covid.
The Lion-of-the-Year Award went to Lion Lion James Friedlander for his personal initiative in envisioning, creating, leading, and completing the important Club community service of donating nearly 200 “Power Packs” to Food for Others to assure school age children had decent meals for the weekends.
Fairfax Lions Club is one of the largest service organizations in Northern Virginia. Our members are from all walks of life, we give back to our community in many ways, and we have a good time doing it! We welcome you!
