On Saturday May 16, 2026, Seeley Lake Lions held our annual auction. This year we decided that the proceeds would go to benefit the Lions Club International Foundation. By making our donation to LCIF, we can help continue the financial support that Lions need, not only in Montana, but worldwide, supporting the causes of Vision, Childhood Cancer, Diabetes, Disaster Relief, Environment, Humanitarian Aid, Hunger and Youth.
We inducted another new member bringing our total for the year to 15 new members! We were treated to a wonderful dinner supplied by 1st District Governor Elect Gary Lewis and his sous chef, Lion Clay Creek. We also had the pleasure of a presentation from PDG and current LCIF co-chair, Mike Tobin, reminding us of the importance that each one of us has to the club locally, in our district and worldwide. He was joined by his lovely wife, Lion Peggy Tobin, our District 37 secretary and administrator.
We then had our silent and live auctions of either new or slightly used items for members to bid on. All totaled, we raised a little over $4,100 which will go to LCIF. It was a fun evening and everyone had a blast!
