Westport Lions Roar
By Lion Bob Reddick
With 1.4 million Lions in 200 countries, it’s no wonder local residents witness Lions initiatives everywhere. Across more than 50,000 clubs, Lions have raised 1.3 billion dollars in grants. Westport Lion members have spotted plaques on playgrounds, park benches, and duck ponds from Japan and Thailand to New Zealand and Australia.
