A History of Service In Our Community
The FRASER Lions Club was formed and chartered in 1986 and since that time has been an extremely active, community focused club. Made up of 30 local volunteers, we choose to donate some of our time and energies to help wherever we can to support and assist those less fortunate.
The food stall we commenced in 1987 at the animal shelter, became the Nikenbah Markets and continues today.
During 1988 -1990 we erected the Shelter Sheds at the now LIONS PARK at the foreshore of the Urangan Pier where we have organised the annual PIER FESTIVAL each year since.
The CONVOY FOR KIDS is a great annual event assisting Kids with Cancer, culminating in a street parade and festival at the foreshore.
Our club marshals the ELECTRIC LIGHT PARADE as part of the annual WHALE FESTIVAL.
LIONS CHRISTMAS CAKES during November & December each year. The money raised has allowed us to assist many charities over many years and these include:- Hervey Bay Special School
- Lions Medical Research
- Cancer Fund & Cancer Research
- Lions Guide Dogs & Hearing Dogs
- Local Women’s Refuge
- Various local schools
- HB Hospital Renal Unit
- Many local needy cases
- Local Blue Care Nursing
Some of our Activities are fun
We meet for our dinner meetings at the Kondari Resort, Elizabeth St Urangan on the 2nd and 4th THURSDAY of each month, 6.3Opm for fellowship and a cool drink with the dinner meeting commencing at 7pm sharp. We strive to achieve meetings that are focused, informative, timely, with good discussion and fellowship.
At our dinner meetings we discuss new and ongoing activities that support both our local community and also Lions national projects. These meetings are interesting, and serious discussion is given to how we plan and execute our activities. In saying this however, our meetings are well known for plenty of laughter and more than a joke or two. We have many great characters in our club and we enjoy each others company immensely.
Fundraising is extremely important to us to ensure we can assist the community in a timely manner.
Our fundraising activities include:
- Food & Drink Stalls at local events
- Regular Bunning’s Sausage Sizzle
- Annual Pier Festival Bar-B-Q, Fishing Contest, Bar, Stalls & Entertainment
- Lions Christmas Cake Sales through the streets of Hervey Bay in our sleigh (with
Santa of course) and through the many businesses who assist us by selling cakes
- Biannual Patchwork & Quilting Expo
- Raffles and Donations
- Annual Convoy for Kids, for kids with cancer
- Annual Whale festival & Light Parade
- Annual Cancer Relay for Life Event
