Clarence Town Lions Club Report
The Clarence Town Lions Club Markets are held on the last Saturday of each month at the Clarence Town Bowling Club from 8am to 12pm. Our markets are a wonderful opportunity for the community to come together – whether you’re looking to browse local stalls, enjoy a chat with friends, support small businesses, or set up a stall of your own.
We are always welcoming new stallholders, community groups and local creatives. Thinking about having a stall? Now is the perfect time to join us. The markets are friendly, relaxed and a great way to connect with others while supporting a good cause. Please note that there will be no market in April this year, as it falls on Anzac Day. Importantly, all funds raised from the markets go straight back into our community.
For over 10 years, Clarence Town Lions have been planting crepe myrtle trees throughout the township. Completed in three stages — and continuing again this year — these trees have become a much-loved feature of Clarence Town. They are absolutely stunning at the moment in full bloom.
Beyond the markets, Clarence Town Lions quietly support a wide range of local and national initiatives. From sponsorship of local schools and support for community groups, to assistance during times of hardship, Lions are committed to strengthening our town. The Club contributes to disaster relief efforts including flood and fire relief, and supports programs such as Lions Hearing Dogs and childhood cancer initiatives.
Lions also play an active role in community events including Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea, Christmas Carols at The Museum, and community BBQs. Whether it’s helping at events, planting trees, weeding the community garden, raising funds, or simply volunteering time, Lions are dedicated to giving back and helping ensure Clarence Town remains a welcoming and vibrant place to live.
Looking ahead, Lions are planning a Barefoot Bowls Day (Friday 27th March), The Biggest Morning Tea on Friday 22nd May and are also exploring a possible event for International Men’s Day in November.
When you support the Clarence Town Lions Markets, whether by attending, having a stall, or volunteering – you are helping make all of this possible.
Lions Club meetings are held monthly at Clarence Town Bowling Club on the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 6.00pm.
