Barrie Richardson Travelling Lion Award
The District 105D competition was introduced by PDG Barrie Richardson and the object was to "unite the Clubs in the bonds of friendship, good fellowship and mutual understanding". These are the words engraved on the 105D shield that is presented, annually at District Convention, to the Club gaining the most points for visiting other Clubs, and attending Multiple District, District and Zone organized events.
The Contact Officer is Judith Goodchild welfare@lions105d.org.uk
The Competition for 2016 is now open.
Please do remember to fill in forms and send them to me when you attend other club, Zone Region or District functions. Visiting is a great way to get to know what is happening outside your own club and the Charter Nights and Social functions are great too. Please scroll down to find the link to download forms.
Unfortunately insufficient clubs entered in 2015 for the competition to run. PLEASE ENSURE THAT 2016 DOES NOT SUFFER THE SAME FATE!
