Dear Members,

It’s time to buckle up & never to look back.

We have entered new era in Lionism. We have new officers at every all level-from Club President to International President to conquer millions of hearts around the world including Bhutan from this year.

I would suggest that every club should hold Brain Storming session at their first regular meetings after taking of the reins of the club. Involve every member including their family to extract ideas for what best program can be taken during the year. By doing so, every member including family gets involved in throwing a idea which usually never struck our minds earlier. As the idea start pouring in, start writing down with the name of the person against it. The number of programmes may run into hundreds but you as the President have surely succeeded in involving almost everyone in the club in designing your Plan of Action for the year.

By doing so, you have achieved something which you might have never expected.

Meanwhile, I would also suggest President to appoint either club’s PRO or another Lion to be Club Reporter. This Lion shall be assigned to send all the club’s activities, programmes and photos to us for publication in Lions Update. By doing so, we involve another Lion into the activities of Lionism and also make us convenient to keep I touch with the Club Reporter for seeking information. Should you desire any assistance in supporting your activities and projects, please call your Region Chairperson or Zone Chairperson, who would be too happy to be with you.

Every human being has some talent. But the talent will come with hard work. Don’t’ under estimate your talent. Do hard work and I am sure successes is yours.

Please update us with your activities and photos by post or email. We are waiting to receive them.

Till we meet next, enjoy Lionism,

Dear Members,

When I was invited to join in 1998 by Lion Allam Panduranga Rao, I had no idea about the length and breath of Lionism. As I grew up as a Lion, the world started becoming smaller and the plight of the poor larger.

My profile is not a hidden one. Having gone through the pathetic times, I am more gifted then many who can feel the pain of the masses in our country. My cabinet is rich with dedication towards their respective offices. I am confident of them delivering their best of experience and knowledge.

While our children has been bestowed with quality education, there are millions unfortunate who are not. I desire to make the children at the government schools be facilitated with the best education and good infrastructure. Hence adoption of 100 schools – one per club shall satisfy me. Similarly conducting of five Lions Quest teachers training programmes, 100 mega health camps, collection of 100 pairs of corneas and 5000 IOL surgeries is designed to achieve greater gratifying levels.

It is my proposal to bring together all the nine districts in our multiple to join hands in organsing ‘human chain’ of friendship, fraternity and forever. Extension of 15 new clubs, achieving 500 membership growths and adding 20 MJF in this Lionistic year are my humble goals.

I have no tall promises but surely towering hope that with you all at my side, I have no doubts that we shall double the figures of our District Goals.

As always, I am available to stand by you in all your endeavors.

The times have just started clicking and remember we are running out of time.

Our time starts now………..

Dr G Babu RaoDistrict Governor

District Governor

Dear Lion Friends,

Greetings to you and family members.

I congratulate all new office bearers and all the cabinet

members of our District 324 C6.

It’s great pleasure to communicate through Lions

Update. As you are aware that already we have started

the lionistic year.

Our beloved District Governor Lion Dr.G.Babu Rao has

set ten goals for this Lionistic Year. So each and every

Lion member of our District needs to strive for it.

We need to extend more clubs this year. We need to

bring members into Lions fold for positive

membership growth and at the same time we need to

work on retention too.

I sincerely request all members of our district 324-C6 to

introduce new members in their clubs and try to see

that to indoctrinate properly, We need to give full

support by extending clubs, membership and service

activities.

We need to work as good team and to accomplish his

commitment and goals this year for the

Lionism and society. And we need to concentrate on

various service activities too. By this we can achieve

our district Governors programme.

Let us unite our hands together to achieve and help

community.

With Lionistic Regards,

Lion D PentaiahFirst Vice District Governor

Dear Lions,

We have started Lionistic year 2010-11 with a blast.

Our Governor Dr G Babu Rao has already achieved his

30% targets within 18 days and you can well imagine

the progress we can see under his dynamic leadership.

Having toured the District, I have gauged the pulse of

Lions. With over 3200 members and 100 clubs, we

have ample opportunities in organizing numerous

service activities. With the LCIF grants we should also

try to plan out in making of permanent projects.

Let us all join hands for making world a better place to

live in.

Best wishes and good luck.

K Penta Reddynd2 Vice District Governor

Second Vice District Governor

Dear Lions,

As the new leaders are taking over the reign of their

respective club, I once again reiterate them with the

best support and guidance from the District office and

its officers.

The visit by the International Director VV Krishna

Reddy, Multiple Council Chairman Ramesh Kosuri and

numerous Past District Governors to our District in the nd2 week of July 2010 has further encouraged and

revitalized us all.

Governor Dr G Babu Rao is a task master and we have

seen his skills on several occasions. His time

management and meticulous planning is worth

adopting. The conduct of 2 day in-house PST Schooling th thon 12 & 13 June 2010 at five star hotel ‘Taj Deccan’ at

Hyderabad has generated huge enthusiasm and

eagerness. The RC/ZC/RS/ZMA workshop ‘Sankalp’ ndheld on 2 May 2010 was no less. In all, it further

cemented the ‘theme’ of our Governor.

The result - effect started pouring in endlessly. With the

induction of around 200+ members and inauguration

of 7 new clubs in just 18 out of 365 days is a reality

which can never be heard ever after. Numerous clubs

have already placed their request for new club

organisation kit. This means that we all set to break

records and make history at the International level.

Destiny is not what is there in our hands. Destiny is

what we strive to create.

Let us do it….together because Living is Giving.

District Cabinet Treasurer

Dear Lion Colleagues,This may be the first time in the history of our district that 42 (50%) clubs have cleared their entire international and district dues so very early in the lionistic year. The achievement is much the more satisfying because it has happened without any incentives either in cash or kind. I heartily congratulate the treasurers, presidents and secretaries of all these clubs on this mighty achievement. I also congratulate each one of the members of these clubs who have made this achievement possible. I acknowledge the efforts put in by the region and zone chairpersons who have motivated club officers to run their clubs on sound administrative lines.

I have always believed that good financial administration and early clearing of international and district dues are the beginning of improving the quality of our organization. If my belief is right, these payments should bring about a transformation towards better lionism.

Here is the list of the clubs, arranged region wise alphabetically, that have cleared the full international and district dues for 2010-2011 as on July 15, 2010:

I hope the remaining clubs will derive inspiration from this list and clear their fiscal responsibilities at the earliest.

Do not re-use Mineral Water Bottles!

Many are unaware of poisoning caused by re-using plastic bottles.

Some of you may be in the habit of using and re-using your disposable mineral water bottles (e.g.Nestle, Bislseri, Aquafina, Kinley, Evian, etc...), keeping them in your car or at work. Not a good idea.

It happesned in Dubai, when a 12 year olf girl died after a long usage (16 months) of SAFA mineral water bottle, as she used to carry the same fancy (painted by herself) bottle to her school daily.

In a nutshell, the plastic (called polyethylene terephthalte or PET) used in these bottles contains a potentially c a r c i n o g e n i c e l e m e n t ( s o m e t h i n g c a l l e d diethylhydroxylamine or DEHA). The bottles are safe for one-time use only; if you must keep them longer, it should be or no more than a few days, week max, and keep them away from heat as well. Repeated washing and rinsing can cause the plasticto break down and the crcinogens (cancer-causing chemical agents) can leak into the water that YOU are drinking. Better to invest in water bottles that are really meant for multiple uses.

This is not something we should be scrimping on. Those of you with family - do please advise them, especially children. Please forward this information.

Prevention is better than cure.

How to avoid:Check on the bottom of the bottle there is a triangle sign and there will be a number on it.

If the number is higher than or equal to 5 —> then this bottle is safe to use.

Whatever number under 5, will release the chemical. For most bottle water, the number is 1.

Did you know chemical released by plastic water bottles can cause cancer.

(It is not the water that affecting you but the chemical releasing from the bottle)

Now it is the time to relax & exercises your brain with easy & interesting PUZZLE.

A series of puzzle will henceforth be published in All (6) issues of the “LIONS UPDATE” (2010-11) with a chance to win a surprise gift.

Unscramble the jumbled “NAME OF CITIES” and write them alongside. In the next round unscramble the alphabets which fall in the circle. This wills from the name one more city famous for its special CHAPPAL (Footwear).
