WHY ATTEND?…Convention-goers can look forward to an inspiring weekend of business and fun, as we unite to shape the future of our great association. The festivities include our Annual General Business, Educational sessions, our guest speaker International Director Judge Anthony W.

The convention offers an ideal setting for reuniting acquaintances and making new friends. Lions also learn about other club and district projects, participate in elections, and make personal connections with international leaders and representatives from headquarters. The most important part of our District Convention, however, is YOU – the Lions and Leos from around the state whose commitment to serving those in need remains constant in an ever-changing world. Our future is in your hands.
