Editorial:
Council Chair Speaks: Aloha Lions of Illinois!
Lions Clubs International is celebrating 100 years of service and we're getting ready for our next 100 years!
The
2015-2016 Council of Governors are now back from Hawaii where they attended the convention and were finally installed as Governors of MD-1. At the time when their spouses pulled their ribbons I did notice a sigh of relief that their long journey to the Governors position was finally over. Lions Clubs International puts in a tremendous amount of time and money into making sure that a Governor has received the tools that they need to lead their Districts. It is now time for them to put those tools to use.
The Centennial Celebration Membership Awards provides all Lions and Lions clubs the opportunity to earn special Limited Edition awards for inviting new members and helping to organize new clubs.
Each Governor has chosen a team in their District to help them to achieve their goals. The Governor will now depend on those Lions to do their jobs and file the reports necessary so that the Governors final report to LCI will be a positive one. Easy to say, difficult to do. The Governor has put his or her faith in you to help them be the very best that they can be. They are working very hard to represent you and their District and it will take a team effort to achieve positive results. After all, you helped to get them this far, why not help them during their year.

Page seven of Your Club Your Way, focuses on ideas to increase involvement.
The Centennial Celebration Membership Awards gives all Lions and Lions clubs an opportunity to earn special recognition by inviting new members and helping to organize new clubs. It's the perfect way to grow membership in your district and earn your Lions Dignity Award.
-People have busy lives in today’s society. The club requirement for attendance at all meetings and activities may be more than your members can manage. Many clubs no longer have an attendance requirement, but individual club members can still work toward a perfect attendance pin if he or she wishes. According to Your Club, Your Way, “Clubs are encouraged to amend their constitution and by-laws to encourage involvement and remove any attendance requirement. Article IX of the Standard Form Club By-laws provides guidance for amending the club by-laws.”
Motivate your clubs to earn their limited-edition Centennial awards. Share the Centennial Celebration Membership Awards throughout the year during your club visits!
Support Children's Dignity Week
-Use technology to stay connected among club members. Consider a club webpage, Facebook, Twitter, or other forms of social media. Send out important information prior to meetings via email or texts, so that members come prepared. If a lion cannot attend a meeting, he or she can still provide input and feedback electronically.
Encourage your clubs to help children in their community by organizing a special service project for Children's Dignity Week during August 30 – September 5.
-Send out a summary of the meeting as soon as possible after the meeting, so that those not in attendance, know what happened. This may entice them to attend the net meeting.
This Centennial Service Challenge event is a great opportunity for your clubs to help children, find new members and support our Centennial goal of helping 100 million people. Encourage your clubs to plan a special service project for Children's Dignity Week.
-Have a meeting time that works for your members. Consider the day, date, time, and venue for your meeting. Is it right for your members? If not, what would work better? Meeting places should be comfortable for members. Some clubs 4
have a meal, others don’t. Whatever works for the majority of your club members is ok.
ble organizations and other service groups will enable them to reach out to even more people offering hope through their assistance. The important idea here is that you are active within your club and that your club is active within your community.
-Remember the importance of a program. An interesting program can bring Lions to meetings! Everyone only has 24 hours in a day. Make the meetings meaningful and fun!
If your Lions Club is active within your community, people know that you are there. Through publicity your community will know what you do. That makes two things possible. 1) It makes it easier for your club to draw crowds for your events and fundraisers. 2) It should make it easier to recruit new members. If your club has an excellent presence in town, maybe even the “warm fuzzies” associated with it, it could become one of the organizations to become a member of. That last sentence may not be grammatically correct, but you get the point.
-Communicate, communicate, communicate! Keep members informed electronically, through the mail, or via a phone call. Retain members by keeping them well aware of fundraisers and service projects. -Jama Wahl, MD1 State GLT Chairperson jamawahl@yahoo.com
MEMBERSHIP CORNER:
As we begin the second month of this new Lion Year, your club should make no small plans. Think big! Combine your efforts with other organizations in town if those big thoughts tell you that help might be needed. Other Lions Clubs in Illinois have done this successfully in the past. So can yours. Do things that will get you noticed. Do things that will make your community feel lucky to have you. Recruiting will become easy.
It’s August Already! It’s approaching that time of year when one looks at the calendar and realizes that we are already well past the mid-point of 2015. Either your kids or grandchildren will be starting school before the month is over. The transition from summer sports to winter sports is about to begin. Where has the time gone, you ask. We know that time passes all too quickly. That fact is born out in our families. The kids grow up very rapidly; way too fast, some would say. Those little darlings are now in high school or even college. What can one do about it?
If you think you might need a little “outside” help when making plans for recruiting new members, your district has a GMT Coordinator. Approach that Lion for their assistance. We all want your club to succeed in this effort. Success will help your club AND your community.
There is really nothing we can do about how quickly the kids and grandchildren grow up. There is something that we can do about what we do with the time we have. Many have said make every minute count.
-Lion Paul Gergolla, PDG MD-1 GMT Coordinator Phone: 630-858-8073 lionpg1@aol.com Dear Lions,
Your active participation in your Lions Club will help you make some of those minutes count. The acts of service you perform will enhance the lives of individuals, some in ways you will never fully realize. The donations you make to various charita-

became president of Lions Clubs International. Now, more committed than ever, I am honored to serve as Chairperson of Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF). The Foundation is something I believe strongly in and is a vital part of Lions' international service efforts.
Lions will distribute solar cook stoves in Kenya, upgrade a health center in Nepal, purchase ultrasound equipment for a hospital in Canada, renovate a Lions camp in the United States, and much more. Lions will help millions of people worldwide through these grants, which were made possible through your support.
LCIF is our Foundation. LCIF supports our compassionate works, providing grant funding for your local and global humanitarian efforts. LCIF helps all Lions serve. Your contributions to LCIF have helped people all around the world by providing disaster relief,saving sight, supporting youth and meeting humanitarian needs.
Grant Deadlines Approaching
LCIF provides grant funding to assist Lions districts in developing and implementing large-scale humanitarian projects. These humanitarian grants help Lions expand their outreach and increase their impact within local and global communities to serve even more people in need around the world. Since our founding in 1968, LCIF has awarded more than US$920 million in grants. Remember, July 31 is the deadline for Standard, Core 4 and IAG grant applications, which will be reviewed at the October 2015 meeting of the LCIF Executive Committee.
LCIF sets a funding goal every year to meet Lions' humanitarian needs worldwide. We're still closing the books for the 2014-15 fiscal year, but we expect that you Lions donated more than US$39 million. That means we've surpassed our annual goal by more than US$1 million! Just think of all the people we have helped because of your generosity. As we kick off another new year, the future is bright for LCIF. With your involvement, we will continue to make the world a better place for everyone. Thank you for your dedication to our Foundation!

orientation skills and cardinal directions, problem solving along the route, crossing both narrow and wide streets safely, re-orientating, shopping and soliciting assistance when needed. Leader Dog's presence in Illinois to date includes 36 graduated O&M clients and over 560 clients who have been partnered with a Leader Dog.
Leader Dogs for the Blind Partners with Illinois' Center for Sight & Hearing Leader Dog Will Offer Orientation and Mobility Services for Center for Sight & Hearing Clients ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich., June 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Leader Dogs for the Blind, in partnership with Center for Sight & Hearing, will now assist Illinoisans through orientation and mobility (O&M) training.
The Center for Sight & Hearing has served northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin since 1962 helping individuals with a vision and/or hearing loss to live more independent lives. Offering services and solutions for all levels of impairment, the Center strives to be a resource for individuals and families living with these two most prevalent and least recognized disabilities in our community.
The Center for Sight & Hearing is a result of 52 local Lions Clubs who dreamed up the facility in the 1950s – that came to fruition in 1962. Today, Lions Clubs across the country support the Leader Dogs for the Blind. Not only do Illinois Lions support Leader Dog, the previous Illinois District 1-D Governor Fred Peska was an avid supporter, which led to the Leader Dog and Center for Sight & Hearing partnership.
About Leader Dogs for the Blind Rochester Hills, Mich.-based Leader Dogs for the Blind is a nonprofit organization that has been providing independent travel to people who are blind through the use of Leader Dogs since its founding in 1939. Over the years, Leader Dogs for the Blind has provided independent mobility to more than 14,500 individuals. The services of the organization are provided free of charge. The organization also provides classes for orientation and mobility, pedestrian GPS and a summer camp for teens. For more information on Leader Dogs for the Blind, call (888) 777-5332 or visit www.leaderdog.org. About Center for Sight & Hearing Rockford, Illinois – based Center for Sight & Hearing (Center) is a private, not-for-profit, freestanding community rehabilitation and healthcare facility which offers vision and/or hearing loss services both on and off site in the northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin region. Since 1962, the Center's focus is on independence and integration of individuals into their communities through programs and services. Programs and Services are available for individuals with different levels of vision and/or hearing loss, of all ages, diversity and skills. Programs and
"Leader Dog is excited to begin a partnership with the Center for Sight & Hearing," said Sue Daniels, President and CEO of Leader Dog. "Its cause aligns with the Leader Dog mission so well, as we both wish to provide independence for those who are blind or have low vision." "Being able to offer our clients Leader Dog's O&M services will allow them to continue to reach new heights," said Diane Jones, President of Center for Sight & Hearing. "We help our clients achieve everything from employment to simply travel outside of their homes, and O&M will be another rewarding option for them to accomplish all their goals." O&M training empowers individuals who are blind with the skills needed to travel safely using a white cane in a much shorter timeframe than traditional O&M programs. The one-on-one instruction is tailored to each person's capabilities allowing for individual needs to be met. Training includes using a white cane, utilizing a human guide, using 8
services offered include Rehabilitation Teaching, Low Vision and Hearing Clinic services, Communication Services (sign language interpreting, braille, captioning), Social/Recreation Programs and Simple Solutions (technology and assistive device sales and demonstration store). For more information on the Center for Sight & Hearing, call 815-332-6800 or visit www.centerforsighthearing.org. Last year, the Center for Sight & Hearing provided almost 3,500 low vision and hearing clinic services, taught 457 to live independently through rehabilitation teaching, enhanced the lives of hundreds through social, recreational and support groups, and provided 3,851 hours of Sign Language Interpreting and Captioning.
though the dust has settled, there is still much work to be done. We can’t think that just because we don’t hear about these areas, that there is no longer a need. Contact a Kirkland Lion and see what they may need. Not too far away, the Darien Lions turned a spur of the moment fundraiser into something great. The local Jewel offered the club a way to make some extra money and the Lions put a purpose behind it. All the money raised would go to aid those in Coal City. Those who bought a hot dog, chips and drink for a buck were happy to leave another 5 behind. At the end of 4 days, a nice kitty was raised. With their kitty in hand, the Darien Lions went to the store to pick up supplies to cook lunch and dinner for residents and volunteers in Coal City. The remaining funds stayed in the area to help those in need.
MD1 ALERT CORNER: Greetings, Let’s change it up this month. We will recognize two clubs for doing something.
Products and cash are always very helpful in helping someone get back on their feet. Sometimes, just as important is an ear to listen. Sharing a cup of coffee with a stranger may result in making a friend and helping them feel better.
The Kirkland Lions Club re-acted and got on top of it in the Fairdale area. We heard about them on the radio and tv. They have received thousands of dollars from various sources to give out to those affected by the tornado in Fairfield. The Washington area who had a terrible tornado last year, raised over $10,000 and delivered it the Kirkland Lions to get it into needy hands.
Hot weather reminder. We may be done with July but here comes August. Some really hot days can still happen so check on family and friends to see if they are ok. Just because you are cool in your home, they may not. -Lion Jim Kiser, State Alert Chairman LIonJimKiser@gmail.com 630-660-7944

As Lions Clubs International is planning to celebrate their 100th Anniversary Celebration, the Lions of MD1, Illinois is planning to host the party. We are in the process of preparing to host the Lions of the World as they arrive in Chicago to be part of this Centennial Celebration. We are looking forward to demonstrate our Midwest welcome and hospitality to all convention attendees and their families. Plan to come and celebrate this milestone in our Association’s History. Chicago has a lot to offer in the areas of site seeing, various food experiences, recreational areas and plenty of shopping opportunities. With Chicago being the Birth Place of Lions, this will be a great time to step back into the History of our Association. There will be a number of sites that you can visit during your convention experience. Along with the traditional activities of the International Convention, Chicago will offer you an opportunity to walk up the steps of the Chicago Art Museum where the photo of Melvin Jones and the founding members had their picture taken with the Lion. There will be time for you to be able to visit the grave site of Melvin Jones on the west side of Chicago. And, an opportunity to visit our international headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois for a tour of the facility along with viewing more of the historical items that are on display throughout the building. The Centennial Convention is June 30 - July 4, 2017 in Chicago, Illinois, USA. The main venue will be Chicago McCormick Place. The different delegation hotels are scheduled to be located along the “Magnificent Mile” - Michigan Avenue. The International Parade will be Saturday, July 1, 2017.

In every District in this wild world of Lionsim, there are quite a number of Past District Governors. Make them involved in your club- district challenges. They have gone through this exercise when they were District Governors. Let them work for you as your club members. Make them your committee advisors, project coordinators or any help you want to use their experience and knowledge. It Is like having more governors to work in your districts to reach your goals and seek advise. I have seen many districts seeking past district governors help to reach their goals, to complete their vision and to fulfill their mission. Let us put them to work to grow lionism in our communities and districts. In less than 2 years we will be celebrating 100 years of Lionism; let us grow with PDG teamwork. More stronger teams we have, more powerful we will become. More knowledge we gather more success will be ours. Dear PDG’s of MD1-State of Illinois, let us walk with our district governors and let us lend our hand in making their mission successful -PDG Austin D’Souza, President, MD1 PDG Association
