🐾 Celebrating 46 Years of GMS Lions! 🦁🎊 What a fantastic evening we enjoyed at The Royal Chase Hotel in Shaftesbury, celebrating our 46th Charter Anniversary with President Andrew, District Governor Dianne, and our fellow Lions Clubs and friends. The room was filled with fun, laughter, and friendship. President Andrew had plenty of tasks to take on – including a special “This Is Your Life” game! He was shown different photos and had to remember where and when they were taken. For every correct answer, £20 was donated to the Air Ambulance 🚁💙. With a little help from his wife Margaret, a wonderful £200 was raised! 👏✨ The fun didn’t stop there – the evening continued with a lively game of Jenga with DG Dianne (lots of concentration and plenty of laughter!), a quiz, and a raffle full of fantastic prizes. A huge thank you to Martin, who kept the night running smoothly, and to everyone who joined us or donated raffle prizes. Your support made it a night to remember – full of fellowship, fun, and true Lion spirit. 🦁💛 (fb)
