This morning’s meeting was packed with presentations. Lion Omar Maldonado (our incoming club President) received the “International President’s Certificate of Appreciation” for “distinguished achievements in fulfilling the mission of Lions International.” The award was presented by Past District Governor Charles Villeneuve.
Club President Lion Mark Shellard and Lion Ron Colunga presented Mercedes Bristol with our sustaining donation to Grandparents Raising Grandchildren, an organization she founded and for which she serves as Executive Director.

And last, but certainly NOT least, Lion Mark accepted on behalf of our club the Robert F. Koennecke Award from Lion Charles. This recognition is awarded annually by the Seguin Noon Lions Club to a club in District 2-S5 in recognition of “Outstanding Service” for the 2025-2026 year. Robert Koennecke was a distinguished Seguin native and a lifelong Lion.
