The Lions Club of Chili recently hosted its last environmental event of the Lions season with guest speaker, Master Gardener John from the Cornell Cooperative Extension. He spoke about the annual decline in monarch butterfly populations due to global warming, pollution, and fewer native plants for them to thrive on. He also made recommendations on how we as humans can help the population grow.

The club also recently welcomed two new members, Lion Rich and Lion Tracy. After attending one of the club’s previous environmental presentations, they were inspired to join to explore new volunteer opportunities and support the community. Rich and Tracy were sponsored by Lion Marketing Chair Cristina Candelaria. Lion Membership Chair Mike Donner performed the inductions.
The Lions Club is grateful for the community’s continued support and is already gearing up for next season with many exciting and informative presentations to come.
