Last night, the Marlborough Lions Club gathered to celebrate a year of outstanding achievements, record levels of service, membership growth, leadership development, and the many volunteers who make our club such a powerful force for good in our community.
One year ago, President Steven Levy challenged our members to do more service and invite more people to become Lions. The club answered that challenge in a big way, setting a high standard not only in Marlborough but throughout the district. Together, we strengthened our impact, expanded our membership, and continued our commitment to serving those in need.
A special thank you to PCC Joyce Hogan for conducting the installation of our 2026-2027 officers and to CST Jennifer Menelly for inducting our three newest Lions. Please join us in welcoming Lion Patrick Gunter, Lion Carol Colaianni, and Lion Ron Colaianni to the Marlborough Lions family! We are excited to have you join this outstanding group of dedicated volunteers. Thank you also to their sponsors, Lions Heather Hadley and Cathy Lambert.

We also extend our sincere appreciation to outgoing President Steven Levy for his leadership, dedication, and commitment throughout the year. Thank you for challenging us to grow, serve, and strive for excellence.
