PHILIPSBURG-- Lions District Governor for Sub-District 60B Errol Lee visited the St. Maarten Lions Club and presided over an audit meeting with the club last week. He visited the newly renovated Lions Den meeting room and the weekend campsite for Sister Basilia Center clients who were hosted by the Lions Club and Mohican Scouts.
He also visited the future location of the Lions family park at The Cottage Roundabout in the Zagersgut area which is to be developed later this year. During the audit meeting, which was attended by Charter Member Lion Frank Arnell and Deputy Prime Minister Rafael Boasman, who is also member of the club, Lee gave high marks for the hard work and dedication the St. Maarten Lions Club members have put in for the first nine months of the year under current Club President Lion Davey Woods.
Thirty board members and regular members attended the audit meeting which included three past District Governors. Lion Claudio Buncamper attended the meeting in his capacity as Region 2 Chairman in which capacity he oversees all Lions and Leos Clubs from the Virgin Islands down to Dominica.
Lee said in his remarks to the members at the Audit Meeting, “The St. Maarten Lions Club is doing a tremendous job and has really set a high standard in the district as to how a club should be run by bringing in younger members over the past few years with innovative ideas and worthwhile projects and letting them breathe new life into the St. Maarten Lions Club, while effectively serving the St. Maarten community.”
The audit meeting concluded with several presentations, followed by dinner with the St. Maarten Lions Club members at the Lions Den. St. Maarten was the final stop on Lee’s visit to the various Lions and Leos Clubs in Region 2.
The St. Maarten Lions Club thanked the management and staff of Sonesta Great Bay Resort for sponsoring Lee’s hotel accommodations during his stay in St. Maarten.
