Camas, WA – The Camas Lions Club has wrapped up an exceptionally impactful year marked by community engagement, global outreach, and internal growth. The organization’s theme of “togetherness” proved to be a powerful force as members collectively made a significant difference in the lives of local residents and beyond.

From securing a prominent presence at the Fourth of July celebration to capturing first place at the 2023 Camas Days parade with their dazzling “There’s No Place Like Camas” float, the Lions Club was a standout in the community. Collaborative efforts with other service organizations, such as Kiwanis, Rotary, and fellow Lions Clubs, addressed pressing issues like food insecurity through initiatives like Celebrate Community. Additionally, the club supported member Nina Day’s iCARE project in Jamaica, demonstrating a global commitment to service.

Local impact was a cornerstone of the Lions’ work. The club's dedication to community welfare was evident through food drives, holiday cheer initiatives, educational support, tree planting, and blanket drives. These efforts, among others, have contributed to a stronger and more compassionate Camas.

At the year-end celebration, the club recognized the contributions of its members and leadership. Queen Lion Stephanie O’Dell was honored with a Queen Bee thank you gift, and other key roles, including Vice President Neil Day, Treasurer Patty Wolf, Membership Chair Nancy Eubank, Marketing Chair Tim Eubank, Secretary Casey O’Dell, and Leadership Chair & LCIF Coordinator Dr. Brian Scott, were acknowledged for their outstanding service.

The Camas Lions Club has expressed gratitude to its members and partners for their unwavering commitment to the community and their role in making the 2023-2024 year one of extraordinary impact.
