Be a part of something special . . .

The members of the Westfield Lions Club are seeking civic-minded men and women to join them in making a difference in the community. The club is hosting an open house on March 2 for people who want to learn more about the club and its work.

“Our club gives members an opportunity to advance worthy causes, serve with friends and become leaders in the community. This club means a lot to our Lions, but it means so much more to the people we serve,” said Club Secretary Jeff Larrison.

The information session will be held from 8 to 10 a.m. on Saturday, March 2 at the Westfield Lions Club, 120 Jersey St. Coffee, hot chocolate and donuts will be served. Larrison encourages the public to come out and learn more about the club’s work.

“We want to share the great things we’re doing in the community, and let others know how they can help,” said Larrison.

The Lions’ motto is “We Serve,” and the Westfield Lions Club has lived up to it. For 89 years the Westfield club has donated funds for local, national and international disaster relief; provided free eye exams and glasses for Westfield school students in need; donated thousands of pairs of used eye glasses; helped fund leader dog training; provided financial donations to the Westfield Heart & Soul Clinic, Open Doors Food Pantry, Westfield Youth Assistance Program and numerous other charities.
