Where to find our Hot Dog stand…
Fairfax Lions raise money for charity each year, with our hot dog sales at the City of Fairfax Independence Day Parade.
We thank our Fairfax community for supporting Lions hot dog sales before, during and after the Independence Day Parade. We enjoyed good sales, and ALL PROCEEDS go to Lions community charity programs…Thank you for visiting us on Independence Day!

At the City of Fairfax Independence Day parade, our Fairfax neighbors bought 171 hot dogs and 240 beverages at our food stand. All proceeds from our fund raisers go to our charity programs in our local community. The proceeds from July 4th make it possible, for example, for the Fairfax Lions Club to provide eye exams and new prescription glasses to 10 persons in our community. The Lions THANK YOU for supporting our commumunity service!
AND, we delivered all unsold hot dogs to The Lamb Center to help our neighbors there!
