Woburn Host Lions Club
About
The Woburn Host Lions Club is the city’s chapter of Lions Clubs International, a worldwide service organization, and a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Its mission centers on eyesight: it collects donated eyeglasses and raises money for Lions eye research. It also supports community causes through a scholarship and annual events, and has celebrated 75 years of service in Woburn, marked alongside the installation of new officers.
The club organizes Woburn’s annual Halloween Parade, which features floats, community groups and marching bands, along with a Monster Dash road race and a Halloween art contest. Other fundraisers include a charity dog walk, a Taste of Spring event, an August golf tournament and Flamingo Flocking, in which supporters can ask the club to flock someone they have in mind. Each year the club makes a substantial donation to the Lions Clubs International Foundation.
