The Shelbyville Lions Club prides itself on its efforts to support the community. From fundraising events to scholarships, they are always looking to give back. In addition, like other chapters across the country, they collect used eyeglasses to restore them, in hopes that they can be reused later.
The Shelbyville chapter is hosting a steak fry on Saturday, August 2 from 4-6 p.m. Club members Mark Colonius and Jeff Johnson say what they are serving comes at a great value compared to what restaurants offer.
As mentioned, the Lions Club is known for collecting used eyeglasses. The group in Shelbyville knows whom to send them to for repairs.
In addition, the Shelbyville Lions Club offers scholarships and lends its time to youth service organizations. The effect on the community is greater than the sum of their parts.
Joining the Lions Club is easy, and there will be opportunities to connect at the steak fry and the organization’s many other events.
More information on the Shelbyville Lions Club is available at their website, e-clubhouse.org/sites/shelbyvilleil/.
