Fort Vancouver Lions and Camas Lions Clubs Celebrate Successful Charity Golf Tournament
VANCOUVER, Wash. — The Fort Vancouver Lions Club and Camas Lions Club proudly hosted another successful Charity Golf Tournament on Friday, June 19, at Fairway Village Golf Course in Vancouver, Washington. The event brought together golfers, community leaders, local businesses, and volunteers for a day of fun, fellowship, and fundraising in support of local service projects throughout Clark County.
The Lions Clubs extend their heartfelt gratitude to the tournament’s Major Sponsors: Reitmeier, Heritage Northwest Group, and Kings Cross Automotive. Their generous support played a vital role in the success of the event and the Lions’ ability to continue serving the community.
The clubs also thank the tournament’s Food Sponsors, including Sunrise Bagels, TMC (Total Merchant Concepts), ESP Supply Inc., Parr Lumber, and The Uptown Barrel Room for helping provide an outstanding experience for participants.
In addition, the Fort Vancouver Lions Club and Camas Lions Club would like to recognize and thank all of the Tee Box Sponsors whose collective support helped make the tournament possible. The generous contributions of local businesses, professionals, and community members demonstrate the strong spirit of service that exists throughout our region.
Funds raised from the tournament will directly support Lions programs and charitable projects in local communities. Lions Clubs are best known for their work supporting vision and hearing initiatives, but they also provide assistance through youth programs, scholarships, hunger relief efforts, mental health initiatives, environmental projects, and support for families facing unexpected hardships.
Because Lions are entirely volunteer-driven, proceeds from events such as the Charity Golf Tournament stay local and are reinvested into programs that improve lives right here in Southwest Washington.
“The success of this tournament is a testament to what can be accomplished when businesses, community members, and service organizations come together with a shared purpose,” said Casey O'Dell from the Camas Lions Club. “We are incredibly grateful for the support of our sponsors, golfers, volunteers, and donors who help us continue serving our neighbors.”
Next Up: Oktoberfest 2026
With the golf tournament concluded, the Camas Lions Club is already shifting into gear for its next major fundraising event: Oktoberfest 2026, scheduled for September 12 at 54°40’ Beer in Washougal, Washington.
The day will begin with a family-friendly 5K and 10K Fun Run, followed by an afternoon celebration featuring German food, live German music, local beverages, raffles, and community fellowship. Proceeds from Oktoberfest will support the Camas Lions Club’s ongoing charitable and community service efforts.
Businesses interested in sponsorship opportunities or individuals wishing to make an in-kind donation are encouraged to contact the Camas Lions Club at camaslionsclub@gmail.com.
The Camas Lions Club and Fort Vancouver Lions Club thank everyone who participated in the Charity Golf Tournament and look forward to continuing their mission of serving the community through projects and partnerships that make a lasting impact.
