Chancellor Bob Corlew International President
Chancellor Bob Corlew, from Milton, Tennessee, USA, was elected to serve as President of Lions Clubs International at the Association’s 99th International Convention held in Fukuoka, Japan, June 24 through 28, 2016. President Corlew is retired as chancellor for the State of Tennessee and a professor of law. A member of the Murfreesboro Noon Lions Club since 1978, he has held many offices within the association, including charter club president, zone chairperson,district governor, cabinet secretary and council chairperson.

In recognition of his service to the association, he has received numerous awards, including the Leadership Award, the Builder Key Award, three International President's Awards and the Ambassador of Good Will Award, the highest honor the association bestows upon its members. He is also a Vanguard of the Melvin Jones None of the Day family really knew what to expect and what Japan Memorial, a Progressive Lindsey-Jennings Fellow would be like, but just like our International Theme it was a New and a Progressive Melvin Jones Fellow. Mountain to Climb. In addition to his Lions activities, President Corlew has been active in the Boy Scouts of America, the Jaycees and the American Red Cross. He has also served as a councilman in Milton and was a Major in the U.S. Army Reserve. President Corlew and his wife, Dianne, also a Lion and a Progressive Melvin Jones Fellow, have five children and five grandchildren
Members of My Lions Family Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be the District Governor of A12. On June 19, we left for an experience of a lifetime. None of the Day family really knew what to expect and what Japan would be like, but just like our International Theme it was a New Mountain to Climb. We had a couple of trips to the airport as we could not all get on the same flights and after about 18 hours of travel time we ended in Fukuoka Japan, on June 20. The airport in Fukuoka had many local Lions providing a hand up to the incoming Lions from around the world making sure we able to get to our correct hotels and providing a welcoming smile. On Tuesday every one of the 743 District Governors from around the world met with International President Chancellor Bob Corlew and his wife Lion Dianne we received some orientation and information on membership and providing more service to our communities. I was honored to have a bit of personal time with new International President. The International President is from from Milton, Tennessee, USA During the District Governor Elect seminar we learned more about the international theme for the year and how we are starting our 100th year of service. As Lions we must continue to assess our service and the programs we offer. As Lions we make an enormous impact on our communities though our work in protecting the environment, our work with youth, as we feed the Hungry and our continued work looking after Vision issues. Every year we are asked to provide more service. When we Climb New Mountains we must develop new leaders and new leadership skills. Part of our training was to prepare for the future working as a team to build up and not destroy just like in the District Governor-Elect Leonard Day receives his Certificate after taking part in training to prepare for the future, working as a team to Lions Code of Ethics. As Lions we have to look at build up and not destroy just like in the Lions Code of Ethics. ways to work together as Lions members, as clubs, as zones and regions and districts. We have to have strong members that will make strong club leaders making a stronger organization. Yes there was lots of learning and we must always be willing to learn new things. There was also time to explore and appreciate the local culture. Meeting the people of Japan and the Lions from around the world opens the door to the work we do as an international Organization. Hearing about projects in Asia, Europe, South America, Africa and of course here at home in North America sheds light that we are all doing to give People a Hand Up in Life. It is hard for me to express how important it was for me to be able to share this experience with my family. It was amazing for me to be able to have three generations of Lions in attendance and all still active in our organization. Without their support I would not be able to do what I do. I would not be able to lead some of the best people in the world. I promise to do my best to lead A12 this year and to provide leaders for our future as we provide the added service that is and will be need in the future Lion Len

A Message From Bob Corlew Lions Clubs International Dear Lions of the World, Paris, France; Brussels, Belgium; Orlando, Florida, USA; Dallas, Texas, USA; Istanbul, Turkey; Dhaka, Bangladesh; Nice, France; racial tension in many parts of the world. Why is it happening? When will it stop? How much is enough? These are questions all of us are asking ourselves, and no one is providing any answers. As the global leader in humanitarian service, a central focus is on providing for those less fortunate through a variety of service programs at the international and local level. Over the past two years, as part of our centennial service challenge, we have served 100 million people around the world. We are proud of our selfless service to others. But as much as service is our focus, it doesn't completely define who we are and what we stand for in the world community. One need only review excerpts from Lions Clubs International Purposes to gain a true understanding of our focus beyond service: To Create and foster a spirit of understanding among the peoples of the world. To Promote the principles of good government and good citizenship. In my inaugural address delivered June 28 in Fukuoka, Japan, I spoke the following words: “As we look at our future, there is another new large mountain which is arising for our world to conquer, and Lions International is the one to help the world climb this new mountain – and that is international relations. The Lions of the world are one family, focused on the goal of providing for others, and creating peace and understanding among the people of the world. We must strive to leave a legacy of world peace, world health, world safety, and world happiness.” In February 1945, Lions' founder Melvin Jones gathered with leaders of other national groups to meet with Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affiars, Archibald MacLeish, to discuss forming a United Nations. In April of that year Lions headquarters asked clubs to hold a United Nations week to show support for the initiative. In that spirit, and as we approach our 100th year of humanitarian service, I ask Lions around the world to hold a day of reflection during the week of July 25th. Set aside this day to reflect on how your club can work with local community leaders to nurture peace, lessen violence that has affected so many of our communities, and foster understanding among all peoples. As we pause to reflect, please keep the victims and families of the recent tragedy in Nice, France in your thoughts and prayers Let us be the example of how people of different races, cultures, religions and diverse backgrounds can come together for a common cause. Sincerely,
Chancellor Bob Corlew

1st Vice District Governor Randy Hargrave
Biography Zone Chair 8N Bill Frieday Lion Bill was born in the O t t a w a Va l l e y i n Arnprior but grew up in Ottawa. As a teen, he delivered telegrams (yes, real telegrams) for Canadian Pacific and some of them to important politicians of the day on Parliament Hill. He graduated High School in Graphic Arts but in those days it was known simply as printing. Bill’s first job however, was in the Fine Paper Business selling paper to printers. This job took him from Ottawa to live in Toronto and then Montreal. His largest paper order was for 1 million dollars to a Montreal Printer who used the paper to print Campbell Soup Labels. Back in Toronto in 1964 working with Victoria Paper Company he had a visitor one day who was about to open a Donut Shop. His name was Tim Horton who at that time was playing with the Toronto Maple Leafs. They had quite a session with Tim and he placed an order to manufacture the first Tim Hortons take-out donut box. Wonder what he would think today if he were alive? Bill became involved in the Figure Skating World not as a skater, but as an executive. This led to almost 15 years as an in-Arena Announcer which took Bill from Coast to Coast in Canada doing Canadian Championships and in that span he was in-Arena announcer for a World Championship and a Junior World Championship. Lion Bill has been a member of the Masonic Lodge for 57 years. And he is a Past Master of his Lodge having served in that capacity 28 years ago. Bill joined the Wasaga Beach Lions Club when he first moved to the Beach in 2006 and he is the current Immediate Past President. The Club has grown to over 60 members this past year. Bill has also been Elected as a Zone Chair 8N for Lions District A-12 On September 8th of this year, Bill and his wife Beverley will celebrate their 60th Wedding Anniversary. They have 2 Grown Children, 5 Grandchildren and 7 Great Grandchildren. Bill is still the current Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year, having been chosen in May of 2015. They seem to be having some difficulty in replacing him, however, Bill says that he is prepared to serve in that capacity until replaced.

Global Membership From the final results, it is apparent we have much to be proud of such as… We were one of only nine Districts in Canada with positive membership growth! We were in the 2nd quintile in New Member Attraction Rate, Net Growth, and Family Member percentage! We increased our Women Member % by 1.2% or 12 additional women members! We turned around a membership deficit of -16 in 2014-15 to +1 in 2015-16 – which means we are able to impact the lives of an additional 850 people in our communities! Thanks to all of you for your efforts to grow service by growing membership. During officer training recently, we discussed goals and it was great to hear that membership growth and new club development were top of mind by the new cabinet officers. I am confident that we will be even more successful in the coming year! It has definitely been a honour to serve with you as Global Membership Team Coordinator over these past two years.

Youth Exchange Creating Global Citizens Across Cultures and Around the World
Album
The Youth Camp and Exchange Program (YCE) brings the ideal of global citizenship to life. Each year this program gives thousands of young people the opportunity to experience life in other cultures and gain new understanding of the world through travel abroad. Unlike some youth exchange programs, YCE does not involve academic study or employment. Instead, participants are encouraged to use this travel opportunity to represent their home countries and share their own culture while learning about and embracing a new one, forging the way to becoming young ambassadors for peace and international understanding. YCE is composed of various Lions Youth Exchanges and/or Lions Youth Camps arranged by Lions clubs around the world. A Lions Youth Exchange, or “host family stay,” can be arranged independent of a Lions youth camp in hundreds of countries where there are Lions clubs and typically lasts between four and six weeks. Lions Youth Camps are one or two weeks long and usually include a host family stay before and/or after the camp. Activities for both exchanges and camps can include visits to places of cultural or natural interest, sporting events, country presentations by participants, guided discussion, and even engagement in local service projects alongside Lions club members. The success of the Lions YCE program is a result of effective communication between all Lions involved in program implementation whether they are sending youth abroad, receiving and hosting youth, or both! Here are some photos reliving the activities of Youth Exchange visiting and staying with families of Lions in District A-12.

Club News Mission Accomplished! Wasaga Beach Lions Club Helps Purchase UTV Rescue Unit The second annual Wasaga Beach Motorcycle Rally was a huge success attracting more than double the predicted number of motorcycles. Funds raised partly through the Mayor’s Ride Saturday morning, means that the Wasaga Fire Department now has its first utility terrain vehicle (UTV). The first Rally attracted 8,000 motorcycles. Mike Dunphy, organizer of the Rally, said he predicted it would attract 16,000 motorcycles this year. “It’s much bigger this year. We’ve got a lot more people coming in. We’ve got a lot of bikes coming in from Quebec this year,” he said Saturday morning before the fundraising Mayor’s Ride set out. “Our Facebook page has gone from 2,500 likes to 8,500 likes in one year. We are reaching upwards to 50,000 people when we are posting,” he said. But solid days of hot sunny weather and warm nights brought out more participants than projected. The Wasaga Beach Motorcycle Rally posted on Facebook Monday morning that attendance for Saturday alone was 30,000 bikes. Dunphy said it would take about a week to calculate total participation numbers and that they are using video footage from a drone to make the determination. “Everybody wants to go for a ride. That’s the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the ride by making it a charity component. People like to give things to a good cause and that’s why I’ve chosen to do the Mayor’s Ride in conjunction with Mayor Brian Smith,” said Dunphy. Money raised from the Mayor’s Ride went toward the purchase of a 2016 Polaris Ranger XP 900 utility terrain vehicle (UTV) with special equipment including a stretcher, lights and sirens, and tracks for use on snow. “The unit was purchased with all the money from the Mayor’s Ride, J&R Cycle, the Central Ontario ATV club and Wasaga Beach Lions Club” Soren Klemmensen, director of the Central Ontario ATV Club (COATV) said it’s extremely important the fire department have such a vehicle. “One third of this town is provincial park where the fire department has a very hard time getting to,” he said. While fire trucks can go anywhere there is roads, they have a difficult time getting to a needed rescue either on the beach or in interior forest trails. “It’s very hard for the fire department to get in and rescue people,” Klemmensen said. The fire department has had to commandeer private snowmobiles in the past to rescue people in the bush, he added. The COATV started the collection for the UTV after a member had the idea and the club worked to get its sponsors and other sponsors on board. Mayor Smith, his wife Joanne Blohm Smith and Wasaga Beach Fire Chief Mike McWilliam took part in Saturday’s ride on their own motorcycles. The 2017 Wasaga Beach Motorcycle Rally will be held July 14-16.
Wasaga Beach Lions 3rd Annual Canada Day Pancake Breakfast Wasaga Beach Lions Club wishes to express gratitude to all who helped make the 2015 Canada Day Pancake Breakfast such a success. We'd planned for 30% less attendance this year with the rainy weather but in fact we hit the 2015 mark almost spot-on! This year's Pancake Breakfast turned out to be a tremendous rallying point for the community and a feel-good event all the way around, especially when the entire crowd in our huge tent stood and sang O'Canada! Our Club served complimentary breakfasts to the Neema Children Choir from Uganda, who rocked the main stage with their singing and dancing. Thank you to our guest Pancake Flipper Wasaga Beach Mayor Brian Smith , new Councillor Joe Belanger and those from Town Hall who paid us a visit during the morning. This event was made possible by the generous sponsorship Sunset Grill and Tim Horton's both at Stonebridge Town Centre who supplied food and coffee respectively as well as our good friends and fellow members from Taste of Paradise who supplied the plates, cutlery, napkins, serving equipment and those delicious Canada Day Cupcakes. A special thank you to all of our amazing members and volunteers. The support of the Town of Wasaga Beach was outstanding supplying the facilities for our Club to hold the event. Thanks to all for your incredible support! For more information on Wasaga Beach Lions Club's work in the community, perhaps wanting to join us and help to do our job call 705429-3331.
