Lions Club of Geelong BreakfastThe Lions Club of Geelong Breakfast was formed by people who had a strong emphasis on youth and this remains the strong focus. We are unique because we meet at 6.45 am for our meetings. This allows members who do not have time in the evenings to serve their community. We invite you to browse through this website as it contains a lot of information about our club and some of the projects we have been involved in.

REPORTSVISIT FROM MARRMA' RON We were delighted to welcome Cameron Begg from the Marrma' Ron - Two Worlds Foundation along with Yirrmal, Dion and Raven, three boys involved in the program. Cameron outlined the program and explained that it is a leadership program that aims to share the strong culture of the Yolngu who live in Arnhem Land with the people of Geelong. The boys go to school at St Joseph's College and they will gain valuable knowledgeand skills to help them survive in the modern world - and retain their own identity within their own culture. They will be the role models for their communities in the future. After Cameron explained the program, Yirrmal played the dideridoo and Dion sang a number of their community songs.
