Mineral Lake Lions Club Welcomes New Member and Installs 2026–2027 Leadership

The Mineral Lake Lions Club officially kicked off the 2026–2027 Lions year during our annual Membership Dinner on July 8, gathering at the beautiful Lavender Passion Flower Farm, home of Lions Tina and Kerry Moore, in Mineral, Washington.

Each July marks the beginning of a new Lions year around the world—a time to reflect on the accomplishments of the past year while looking ahead to new opportunities to serve our community. The evening was filled with great food, fellowship, and a shared commitment to continuing the work that has made the Mineral Lake Lions Club a cornerstone of our community for more than 70 years.

Welcoming a New Lion

One of the highlights of the evening was welcoming our newest member, Lion Heath Linde. We are excited to have Heath join our Lions family and look forward to the talents, enthusiasm, and heart for service he brings to our club.

The evening also included the installation of our 2026–2027 officers and board members by Lion Emerson Bishop of the Sumner Lions Club, who had the honor of leading the installation ceremony and officially welcoming our new leadership team for the coming year.
