​Who We Are:

The Mayne Island Lions Club is a proud member of Lions International, the world's largest humanitarian service association with over 1.3 million members from 200 countries.  

Lions International celebrated its Centennial in 2017. It was founded on June 7, 1917 in Chicago by Melvin Jones. The Lions motto is "We Serve".

We are located on beautiful Mayne Island in the Southern Gulf Islands of British Columbia, Canada. 

The Mayne Island Lions Club received its charter in 1971. Currently the club has 49 members. This number fluctuates from time to time -  We have had as many as 55 members or more.  We always have room for another willing Lion.  

The club welcomes anyone who is willing to observe the Lions Code of Conduct and wants to serve the community. Membership is by invitation. Both men and women are welcome as members.

Meet our Executive Team here.

​New members of the Executive Team are installed in July of each year.
