Since 1932, the Cornwall Lions have provided community leadership in many areas of civic need. The proceeds of the club's many fundraising projects go to the Cornwall Lions Club Community Service Fund. Club members then decide at meetings where the money is needed most with a special emphasis toward funding organizations and needy people - particularly those with special needs in sight, hearing and diabetes. The Cornwall Lions have dinner meetings the first and third Tuesdays of each month at 6:45PM, preceeded by a Board of Directors/Officers meeting at 6:00PM. The dinner meetings are held at Canterbury Brook Inn - cost is $23 for members and free for invited guests and member prospects [by invitation]. For the 2020-21 Lions Club cycle:
