At the heart of the Lions Club is a passion for serving others. From providing vision screenings for children to offering scholarships and assisting with local events, we are dedicated to making a difference.
Through our KidSight Vision Screening Program, we visit local preschools and elementary schools to detect vision issues early. Our screenings identify conditions such as lazy eye, cross-eye, and refractive issues. Children in need receive referrals to 20/20 Eye Care, and for families without medical coverage, the Lions Club covers the cost of treatment.
Each December, we participate in the Basalt Tree Lighting Ceremony at Willits and Downtown Basalt. We serve hot chili, bring the community together, and celebrate the holiday spirit with music, lights, and festivities.
