Lions Club Purpose

  • To Create and foster a spirit of understanding among the peoples of the world.
  • To Promote the principles of good government and good citizenship.
  • To Take an active interest in the civic, cultural, social, and moral welfare of the community.
  • To Unite the clubs in the bonds of friendship, good fellowship, and mutual understanding.
  • To Provide a forum for the open discussion of all matters of public interest; provided, however, that partisan politics and sectarian religion shall not be debated by club members.
  • To Encourage service-minded people to serve their community without personal financial reward, and to encourage efficiency and promote high ethical standards in commerce, industry, professions, public works, and private endeavors.
  • To show my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I merit a reputation of quality of service.
  • To seek success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own self-respect lost because of unfair advantage is taken or because of questionable acts on my part.
  • To remember that in building up my business it is not necessary to tear down another; to be loyal to my clients or customers and true to myself.
  • Whenever a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself.
  • To hold friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one to another, but that true friendship demands nothing but accepts services in the spirit in which it is given.
  • Always bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my state, and my community, and to give them my answering loyalty in word, act, and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor, and means.
  • To aid others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid to the weak, and my substances to the needy.
  • To be careful with my criticism and liberal with my praise; to build up and not destroy.

Anchor Award

PURPOSE:
The purpose of this award is to provide recognition for the "Grass Root Lions" who are the anchors and stability of our association. The goal is to eliminate the club dropouts, by recognizing these Lions who put out special effort at the club level.
All Lions will be eligible for this award that have put in at least 125 hours or more of service in any recognized Lion activity, except the following:
• Current Club Presidents
• Current Club Secretaries
• Current Zone Chairs
• Current Cabinet Secretaries
• Current Cabinet Treasurers
• Current Multiple District chairs
• Current District Governors
• Current Vice District Governors
• Past District Governors and Past Vice District Governors
• Current or Past International Officers or Directors (District Chairs shall be considered for the Anchor Award at the discretion of the District Governor. Hours accumulated on district committee activities shall NOT be considered for the award.)

RULES:
Each Lion should keep a record of all the hours they work on anything in conjunction with Lionism. These must be certified and dated by the club president or secretary. All hours counted must be actual and not estimated. Sleep and travel time are excluded from any of the hours counted toward the award. Fifty (50) points (hours) will be the maximum allowed for any one project or activity and total points (hours) must be accumulated from more than one activity or project. The club secretary shall collect each tally sheet, tabulate its points, and submit it to the District Governor or District Anchor Award chair by July 31 5t of each year to be eligible.

The following is a partial list of functions that could count toward this award.
• Club Meetings
• Club Projects
• MD-35 Projects 148
• Lions International Projects
• Lion Training Seminars and Classes
• Zone and Cabinet Meetings
• Council of Governor's Conferences
• Inert-club Meetings
• Visitations to any Lion's entities.
(Leader Dog for the Blind, any Eye Bank, Conklin Center, Lions Clubs International, Southeastern Guide Dog, etc.) The contest year shall run the Lionistic year, which runs from July 1st of each year through June 30th of each year. The award can be earned only once each year but may be awarded at any time during the contest period after completion of the hours required. As of July 1st of each year, all hours accumulated will be dropped and a new contest period shall begin.
SINCE THIS IS A CLUB AWARD, each club must order their award pins or tabs by sending a copy of the worksheet, and the order form with a check attached for the number of pins and tabs being ordered to the District Anchor Award chair, who shall, after recording for reporting purposes, take the checks and purchase the proper amount of pins and tabs from the Cabinet Secretary for the clubs. Cabinet Secretaries shall order Anchor Awards in sufficient numbers from the MD-35 Office Manager to furnish the Anchor Awards chair with what is needed for the district. There shall be no Multiple District or District winner, as this is strictly a club award.

Helen Keller Award
Award History

Born in Tuscumbia, Alabama, USA, in 1880, Helen Keller developed a fever at 18 months of age that left her blind and deaf.

With the help of an exceptional teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan of the Perkins School for the Blind, Helen Keller learned sign language and braille. A few years later, she learned to speak. As an adult, she became a tireless advocate for people with disabilities. And in 1925, she attended the Lions Clubs International Convention and challenged Lions to become "knights of the blind in the crusade against darkness."

The Lions accepted her challenge and our work ever since has included sight programs aimed at preventable blindness.

CODE of ETHICS

To Show my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation for the quality of service.

To Seek success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own self-respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable acts on my part.

To Remember that in building up my business it is not necessary to tear down another’s; to be loyal to my clients or customers and true to myself.

Whenever a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself.

To Hold friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one to another, but that true friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the spirit in which it is given.

Always to bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my state, and my community, and to give them my unswerving loyalty in work, act, and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor and means.

To Aid others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid to the weak, and my substance to the needy.

To Be Careful with my criticism and liberal with my praise; to build up and not destroy.

The Star-Spangled Banner

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
Bahamas

Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland; March on to glory, your bright banners waving high. See how the world marks the manner of your bearing! Pledge to excel thro' love and unity.

Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland; 'Til the road you've trod lead unto your God, March on, Bahamaland!
