My name is Lion Larkin Smith. I’ve been a member of the San Marcos Lions Club for 27 years. I’m also a Past District Governor in Texas.
There are over 1.4 million Lions serving in 750 Districts in 210 countries. In 2012, Lions Clubs International was recognized by the United Nations as the largest and greatest service organization in our global world as the number one non-governmental humanitarian organization in the world.
Two books have been published, one by Past International President, Lion Julien C Hyer and the other by Past International President, Lion Everett J,”Ebb” Grindstaff outlining 100 years of the history of Lionism in Texas from 1917 until 2017.
