About Us
Serving since 1956
A Brief History of the Saraland Lions Club
The Saraland Lions Club was founded in 1956 with
88 members. Many of the charter members were
Satsuma Lions, but lived and worked in Saraland.
These Lions felt that they could better serve the
Saraland community by chartering a Lions Club for
Saraland.
The club met at the Saraland Woman’s Club
building when first established, where Lions Club
members remodeled the bathrooms and built a
barbecue pit that was used for many fundraisers.
Over the years, the Saraland Lions Club has been
instrumental in accomplishing many projects that
enhanced the Saraland community. Projects such
as:
•
establishing physical addresses for residents
and numbering houses,
•
bringing gas service to the area,
•
helping to establish Saraland Elementary
School,
•
building and refurbishing the building benches
and tables in public places and parks,
•
building Hertz Park for the community to enjoy,
•
building many pavilions and basically playing a
substantial role in the overall maintenance and
beauty of the city.
Purpose Statement
The club has seen members come and go, but
Saraland Lions Club’s purpose has stayed the
same; to serve as champions of blind, aid in sight
research, using road blocks and pancake breakfasts
to help needy persons receive the eye care, sending
children to Camp Seale Harris for children with
Diabetes, vision and hearing enhancing equipment
and aiding in needed community projects.
