Lions Club of the Year Perpetual Trophy

The dinner meeting on 23 November 2009 not only produced 3 new Lions, but included the presentation of the Lions Club of the Year Perpetual Trophy to our Club. The shield is awarded annually to a Lions Club in Tasmania which has demonstrated the best all-round performance within the purposes of the organization. At the District Convention held in Hobart 13-15 November, it was announced that the shield had been awarded to the Lions Club of Rocky Cape/Stanley. The presentation was made by Smithton Lions Club President, Lion David Johns, and was accepted by our President, Lion Craig Williams. This was a stunning surprise for all of us, and will act as encouragement for all of the Club and our Lions-in-training, and also vindicates the tireless efforts of the past, present and new members of the Rocky Cape/Stanley Lions Club. A special thanks to the members of the Smithton Lions who came to join us for the evening.


A special mention must be made regarding Tail Twisting Lion, "Young" Kevin Radford, who, through his efforts to procure a "Home Base", was not only known as "Councillor" Radford, but has been acknowledged as the Honorary Mayor of Rocky Cape.
