The Lions and Leos of Zone 3B
following the Audit of the Clubs, rolled out the Saint Lucian hospitality when
they played host to the other lions and Leos of Regions 3 – Barbados, Grenada
and St Vincent.
The hosting began on Thursday night with the Castries club Social activity Karaoke night where the lions from Grenada and Barbados showed off their singing prowess way into the wee hours of the morning.
Friday night saw the group taking in the popular Gros Islet night street party which they thoroughly enjoyed.
Saturday morning saw the group breaking up into two Zone meetings – Zone 3B and 3C. The meetings were very successful and productive. Zone 3B saw some positive growth when they inducted five lions and one Leo. The afternoon session was the Region meeting which recorded an unprecedented registration of one hundred and thirty (130) Lions and Leos.
In addition to the presentation of reports by the three Zone Chairmen, the meeting received a report from Lion Nicolyn Moore of District 60A, LCIF Chairperson on how to access funding form LCIF as well as an update on funding disbursed in District 60. The meeting accepted the nomination of Lion Sherwin Greenidge as the candidate for Second Vice District Governor.
Our Region meeting was blessed to have our District Governor, Lion Isaac Solomon, MJF who presented a status report of the Sub-District. Our Region Chairman Lion Maureen Graham, MJF, indicated how pleased she was with the attendance and the work that the clubs in Region 3 are doing. She encouraged clubs to continue on that path.
The highlight of the meeting with the presentation of the diamond, Progressive Melvin Jones Fellow to our very own Region Chairman, Lion Maureen Graham. We wish to express our Congratulation to her on this achievement. Also receiving awards from the Castries club were Lions Fleming James- 30 year service chevron, Marilyn Dudley 28 year service chevron, Lana La Force 15 year service chevron.

The Region Chairman also presented tokens to her Zone Chairmen, her advisers and the members of the Region 3 Meeting planning committee.
The Saturday night saw the Lions and Leos letting off steam at an all-night Lucian style party at the picturesque Stony Hill. There was lots of eating, drinking and dancing again till the wee hours of the morning. And this was not enough to keep the Grenada Lions and Leos who prepared eats and drinks and on Sunday before departure enjoyed the lovely white sand beach at Vigie before boarding at George F.L. Charles. Lions and Leos all indicated that it was a great meeting which they thoroughly enjoyed. Hats off to the Chairman and her Team of the planning Committee.

would not have been the success that it was. Our thanks also go to Bay Gardens
