District Governor's Report August 2008
Fellow Lions, Lionesses and Leos:
ANOTHER month has passed so quickly. Most Clubs have had their changeover and I congratulate the new Board Members on taking up their elected positions.
International President Lion Al Brandel’s theme for this current year is "MIRACLES THROUGH SERVICE."
His feeling is that Lions are Everyday Heroes and in some way, each day, we perform at least one miraculous deed for somebody.

Wyn Tyquin Award
In the search for an appropriate award for supporters of the Lions Spinal Cord Fellowship, the committee was conscious of the fact that its often the grandmothers, mothers, wives and women generally who take on the primary caring role of those with chronic disability.
Women also play a strong support role in Lions as either the strength behind the member or in recent years, as strong and involved club members.
The Win Tyquin Award is an attractive, free-standing glass award with Donor details and the recipient’s name and the month awarded are elegantly laser-etched on the award.
Open to all clubs or individual Lions who make a donation to the Fellowships of $A500 or more.
