Special Meeting

Our first  meeting of the month on 5/11/2010 will be held in the Lions Den at Peggy Baker Park.   For 2010 the South Oldham Lions has sponsored 10 Little League teams  at Peggy Baker Park on Abbott Ln. 

Please be alerted of the very special meeting at the Peggy Baker Park in the Lions Den at 6:45 PM.  The Little League will be entertainment as well as the special meal and program planned for the membership meeting.  Coach Steve Carter SOHS will be the guest speaker for this meeting.

Lions, a note to remember for those don't want too, or can't walk very far --- games start at 5:30, so why not come early and watch a little baseball, and get a closer parking space.

REMEMBER TO wear your Lion's vest.  For those few who need to park closer we have permission for 3 or 4 cars to park on the right side of the road to the "Lion's Den", leaving enough room for Dustin to get in and others to pass, so that you do not have to walk too far.  I'm still trying to get confirmation from as many of our coaches as possible who will be able to join us so that I can advise Dustin on how many extra will be eating with us. The many rainouts last week has many of them doing make up games that will keep them from being able to attend. I'm attaching an updated listing of our teams and coaches so that you can acknowledge them if you get a chance ----- they are all prospects to become future LIONS. 

Thanks Tom Price

The South Oldham Lions Club has been recognized by Senator Ernie Harris and the Commonwealth of Kentucky Senate for the long history of community services upon the event of their 60th anniversary.  Click on link to see the Commonwealth of Kentucky Senate document.

The South Oldham Lions Club has over the years continued to sponsor and support the Mets team with the South Oldham Little League.  Most recently, an early 2009 proposal was initiated by Lion Tom Price and approved by the South Oldham Lions Club to give greater support to the many young families and children who are a part of the South Oldham Little League.  His efforts and our increased involvement has developed into a renewed commitment to the SOLL which has prompted our club to make a considerable financial contribution for the new “Multi-purpose” building at Peggy Baker Park where many ball games are played each year.  This building will be called “The Lions Den”.  It is another example of our dedication to give financial support for a needed facility in our community, especially for these young families and their children who are the future of our county and our club.
