Lions Clubs Project / Publicity Vest - (Info Sheet)
Lions Club members in NZ are almost “invisible” to the public when we are undertaking projects.
Most of our Clubs have Club shirts but these are in such varied colours that when Clubs work together on one project (eg: Christchurch earthquake, Rally of NZ etc), then the multiplicity of Club colours does not present an easily recognised“Lions Clubs brand” to the public or newspaper photographers.
The Lions Clubs International gold / purple vest that we often see in overseas Lions photos is the ideal way to be highly visual & easily recognised by the public. The reason most Clubs do not use these is cost - LCI sells the gold / purple vest shown below for $35 US and once it arrives in NZ it is well over $55. This is too high a price for most NZ Lions Clubs.
The 202k District Cabinet has approved Remuera Lionsarranging the manufacture of2000 vests to the same specifications and on-selling them to each Club in our District for just $10 each delivered (inclusive of GST).
YES - just $10 each! They will assist us being easily recognised- “LIONS -WE SERVE”
District Legal ChairChris Lynch has stated that the vests can be paid for from your Projects / Trust Account.
