Family day - The Lions way


Welcome to the real meaning of a family!
We all have families where we come from and belong. However, there is one unique family; the Lions family where a family day-out is nothing but fun, fun and more fun. Oh! you haven't clicked! Well, let me take you through what transpired on 14th December 2008 during our end of year Family day.



The day begun with the learning and playing of a new and exciting game called wood ball. Lions Dans and Emelda group took the day followed by Lions Emma and Jotham. now, let me let you in on the secret of being the first (according to Dans), always register as the first. I could not refute his theory because he had registered his group first and the group won, so........ go ahead and follow.

The game was followed by a samptous lunch thanks to the good organisation by the Activities committee chaired by Lion Tush Naturinda.











The lunch break was followed by an address by the President of Lions club of Kampala central, Lion Mercy and the Immediate Past District Governor, Lion Hon. Shem Bageine. We were then treated to a brain teasing session led by Eng. Dans Naturinda.












The most interesting part of the day was the introductions led by Lion Grace. You must have read in one of the Lion Magazines that "each club should have it level of silliness" and surely this was ours. Ever imagined introducing yourself with a trademark gesture?? Yes, that's what we did and believe me it was fun and everyone loved it.















The children had too much fun and they climaxed it with the cutting of the Lions christmass cake together with "Father Christmass" Lion Venie Tinkumanya.
















After munching the cake, it was time to shake our bones and yes! the young and old all pulled very serious strokes.
















As the memorable day came to an end we sat in a group and listened to words of wisdom from our beloved IPDG Lion Hon. Shem Bageine and other senior lions.
It is an understatement to say that "the day was good" because to me it was memeorable and showed the real meaning of a family; Lions family at that!
I now bring to you some of the other moments as cuaght on camera;
