Congratulations to the new Miss Loudoun County 2002 Miss Candace Rene Owens of Purcellville. The 46th Annual Miss Loudoun County Pageant was a great success. Lion Ed Poe and all the Lions and supporters involved conducted a fine show. The event raised over $7,000 for the charitable programs of the Purcellville Lions Club p> 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.



Lion Charlie Fishback drove his corvette in the 4th of July Purcellville Parade. Miss Loudoun County waved to the crowd from the back seat.

bland "Carry Me Back to Ole Virginny" was written by James A. Bland. This is special music to the Lions in Virginia. The Lions Clubs of Virginia sponsor a music contest for school students called the "Bland Contest" in honor of James Bland. The Annual Bland Music Scholarships Program was established in 1948 to assist and promote cultural and educational opportunities for the musically talented youth of Virginia. The program consists of elimination contests starting at club level and continuing through “State Final Contest.” The program is open to any boy or girl, vocalist or instrumentalist, properly sponsored by a Virginia Lions Club. Any resident of Virginia (or within the club jurisdiction) and attending elementary, junior, or senior high school is eligible to participate.
