Club Activities Scheduled for 2010
The members of the Lions Club of Russell are an active
group. Not only do we organize a significant number of
fundraising events each year, we're also active participants
in our community, Russell Township.
This year's events are listed below. If you have questions
about any of the events, just send us an email.
Lobsterfeast 2010 (May 29)
A perennial favourite! Every year,
the Club has its annual Lobsterfeast, which is held on
the last Saturday in May at the Russell Arena. Entertainment
will be provided and, of course, there's the all-you-can-eat
lobster and roast beef. Famous far and wide, the Lobsterfeast
sells out early – very
early – so drop us
an email to reserve
your tickets. Click here

DocFest ! (June 26, 2010)
 Come
out and celebrate Dr. Gerry
Heyman's 30 years of dedicated service to our community! June 26, 2010 is
the date for what is sure to be an amazing evening.
Money raised from this event will be donated to the Winchester Hospital's
Othalmology Unit.
Canada Day Celebrations
(July 1, 2010)
Another favourite – small town
Canada Day celebrations! A fun day for the whole family with great entertainment, kids games, fireworks, and more! See you at the Russell Lions Ball Park!
