THE Woodford Lions Club is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. The Club was established in 1984, and to celebrate the occasion will now be hosting an exciting evening of entertainment on September 28 from 6pm to 9pm, followed by a fun matinee on September 29 from 12pm to 3pm.
They are hoping for strong local community support for a two-course meal and a great night of entertainment at the Woodford Bowls Club on Webb Lane, all for just $45. One inaugural member, Andrew Clews, remains active in the club, along with Derrick Sutton, who joined the following year.
Both are still very involved in all activities. The Woodford Lions provide a delivery hub for Meals on Wheels to the Woodford, D’Aguilar, Delaneys Creek, Stanmore, and Cedar Creek areas, alongside their roster of volunteers. They also organise volunteers and fund weekly early morning breakfasts for Woodford State and Delaneys Creek schools.
Funds raised throughout the year come from two dances at the Woodford Memorial Hall, The Instrument Lockup and Blue’s Bar BBQ at the Woodford Folk Festival, the Street Carnival and Lantern Parade, and now, the Variety Concert in late September.
With only 80 seats per show, make sure to secure your tickets for this great night by calling Ruby on 0439 736 604 or Judy on 0437 631 815, or by emailing rubygregory8@ gmail.com. Tickets are also available at Woodford Newsagent, Archer Street
