The Meriden Lions Club, organized in 1923, is composed of individuals from various business sectors in the community. We focus our efforts on supporting the blind and handicapped and on a variety of community service projects. Some recent or ongoing projects include:
- Building of Spray Water Park for the City of Meriden
- Refurbishing of the bathrooms at the YMCA Outdoor Center
- Annual Foliage tours for the elderly residents of convalescent homes
- Development of Computer Center at the Boys and Girls Club
Oct 12, 2005 approximately 100 residents of local nursing homes will be taken by chartered buses along scenic routes to view fall foliage and then will be treated to lunch before returning to their residences. This has been an annual event for over 25 years. George Carabetta is chairman of this event.
We also make donations to various local and statewide organizations, such as: * J.D. Nerden Camp for the Handicapped * Boy and Girl Scouts * Eye Research Centers at Yale and UCONN * YWCA * Juvenile Diabetes * Curtis Home for Children * Midstate Medical Center * Project Graduation * Camp Hemlocks
Meriden Lions Club meets on Wednesdays at 7:00pm at the San Souci Restaurant.
Meetings are held from September through June.
