Park Rapids Lions

Who We Are

Founded in 1954, the Park Rapids Lions Club is a diverse organization of women and men dedicated to community and international service projects. Since receiving its charter on June 23, 1954, the Park Rapids Lions Club has adhered to the Lions International motto of “We Serve’ by actively serving the Heartland Lakes Area community. We contribute financial support, volunteer manpower and sponsorship of various community projects.

Lions don’t just envision a better world, we make it a better world. Through acts of kindness, both large and small, we touch the lives of the people we serve. We are friends, family and neighbors who are making a difference!
