Zone 5 Chairman Lion Terry Carroll introduced DG Gavan who addressed the meeting.
Lion Gavan spoke on their trip to Las Vegas where more than 40 Australians were inducted as District Governors for 2018-2019.
He was proud to announce that for the first time in history the International President was a female – Lion Gudrun Yngvadottir from Iceland.
Gudrun’s theme is “We Serve”, her message “Beyond the Horizon’ and her focus “Harnessing the power of 1.4 Million Lions”
Gavan said that all clubs are unique and fundraise/volunteer in various ways. He spoke on Lions Foundations and touched on membership.
He said: “All clubs need new members and the best way to get new members is simply to ask. Lions are International leaders in Humanitarian Service because of clubs like yours.”
Following his address, DG Gavan presented his Pin as a memento of his visit to President Lion Ian Acret on behalf of all members to be placed on their Cowra Lions Club Banner.
