The death of departed Lion Marshall E. "Gene" Newkirk's Gene's wife Alice brings sadness to all of Purcellville. Alice Newkirk survived past District Governor Lion Gene by just six months. May they rest together in peace.
 Sgt. Kelly
Purcellville Police Sergeant John Kelly spoke to Lions at a recent meeting. Sgt. Kelly addressed concerns over the current state of alert since September 11th and recent crime incidents near town.
With five prospective members as guests, two new members inducted, two guests from nearby Lions Clubs, and a speaker from the local police department November's first regular meeting was great. There was a lot of excitement - a mood of a club headed in the right direction. And the food was great as usual.
The First Annual Purcellville Lions Club Golf Turnament was held on Friday, October 5, 2001 at Virginia National. Lion Tom Melgaard organized this successful event which raised nearly $3,000.
The Annual Purcellville Lions Club Picnic was held on August 23rd next to Fireman's Field. Thanks to all Lions who attended and brought family.
Thanks for everyone's help with the recent Purcellville visit of the Lions Club District 24-A Sight and Hearing Van. This was the first time the van has been in Purcellville in many years. Over sixty people dropped by to have their eyes and ears checked. A good start to what will now be a regular event.

since 1956. The event has continued each year since that time. In its 46
years the pageant has raised over $100,000.00 for the benefit of the Purcellville
Lions Club’s charitable programs. In recent years the Lions Club has used
proceeds to provide college scholarships to local high school seniors.
How You Can Help

Make a contribution to support the event. Many local business
firms and individuals have contributed in the past by becoming sponsors
of the event and we are asking for your support again this year. There
are three levels of support depending on the amount donated:

-
Names of all supporters will be listed on the pageant program
given to attendees of the event, on the Purcellville Lions Club web site
at www.orgsites.com/va/purcellvillelions/, and in a newspaper advertisement

businesses to demonstrate their community involvement.

customers for your business. The web site will be visited by hundreds of
individuals. Donations are also tax-deductible.
