How do we pay for these projects?
Through your generosity and the generosity of
the local lions members. When you purchase a salmon bake ticket for
our annual July 4th weekend Salmon Bake, purchase a ticket for a raffle
that we are sponsoring or by renting a tent and chairs for your special
occasion -- you help the Orcas Island Lions provide these services.
Thank you for helping us help our community!
