Membership FAQ
Who can join the club?
Any adult who wants to serve their community is welcome. Members come from Wales, Genesee Depot, the Town of Genesee and the surrounding area. No special skills required — just a willingness to help.
How much time does it take?
It's flexible. The club meets twice a month, and you choose which projects and events fit your schedule — from a few hours a year to every event we hold.
Are there membership dues?
Like all Lions clubs, we have modest annual dues that cover Lions International and district membership. We'll walk you through the details when you visit — and the value far outweighs the cost.
Do I have to attend every meeting?
No. We'd love to see you when you can make it, but we know life is busy. Members participate at whatever level works for them.
Not ready to join? You can still help.
You don't have to be a member to make a difference. Lend a hand at a pancake breakfast, the car show or any of our events — no dues, no meetings, no commitment. Many of our members started as volunteers who simply kept coming back.
