Thursday, February 19, 2009
February 24 will mark a milestone in the history of the Nevada Lions Club, 85 years of service to the community. The club was chartered in 1924, seven short years after the first club was formed in Chicago by businessman Melvin Jones. He believed that local business clubs should expand their horizons from purely professional concerns to the betterment of their communities and the world at large.
