‘We Serve’
The Lions Club motto is “We Serve,” and the Butler chapter celebrated 100 years of putting that credo into action Saturday night, June 24, at Tanglewood Center in Butler.
Club members showed up in their best Hawaiian shirts for the luau-themed celebration, which was teeming with history and fun.
Displays of the club’s accomplishments, food, and entertainment filled the space, as many members reflected on the organization’s mission.
According to Barry Flecken, the Lions International organization started in 1917. The Butler chapter was formed in 1923 after being sponsored by the New Castle club.
