Barrie Richardson Travelling Lion Award
This Award is continuing.
One of PDG Dave's ambitions was "for clubs to start visiting one another, not just within their Zone but cross into other Zones and work together in partnership so that we can achieve the goals we set for the individual projects". This is continuing in 2025 -2026 and so you need to record these visits because at Convention 2026 there will be a trophy awarded for the club with the most visits". It is also great fun and informative when you find out what is similar to your own club but also what is dissimilar and you can come away with new ideas for your own club. The competition runs from 1 March 2025 until the end of February (28th) 2026. Visits from 1st March 2025 can be backdated.
There is now a new Barrie Richardson Travelling Lion Award.
It was not awarded in 2025 as there were no entries.
In 2024 it was awarded to Chippenham Lions Club.
In 2023 it was awarded to Loddon Valley Lions Club.
Originally this award was introduced to "unite the Clubs in the bonds of friendship, good fellowship and mutual understanding" and these aims will result from the Dave's vision. Points will be awarded for visiting other clubs, attending Charters, helping at other clubs events, attending Zone Meetings and Socials, attending District events (Fun Day/Forum), attending Conventions - SC, MD, International, visiting clubs abroad and in other Districts. and Multiple District events.
District Officers visiting clubs or events on official District business are NOT eligible to claim points. However, other lions accompanying them on the visit are eligible to claim.
PLEASE NOTE: under the criterion Visits to other Clubs' Meetings, no more than two visits to the same Club may be claimed in any one competition year. Points will be awarded to each Lion attending the event.
To make it fairer to all clubs, whatever their size, a "percentage of Club Membership" regulator is applied to give clubs an equal (well almost equal) chance.
