1 MD 201 N2 NEWSLETTER ISSN (Print) X February - March 2016 Achieving Our Dreams Together District Governor Sally Wilton - District 201 N2 of the International Association of Lions Clubs Happy New Year from District Governor Sally I hope with the arrival of 2016, all Members of Clubs, and their families have had a good break, and are ready to again, assist with all the amazing activities I have been fortunate to see and appreciate as District Governor. Stan and I visited many Clubs during December, and January, and with a quiet family Christmas and New Year celebration have again travelled to see some of the Sydney area Clubs, in Fairfield, Cabramatta, and Sydney Baseball. The Robbie Burns evening was celebrated on the 11 th January, and Stan and I both had a wonderful visit and a lot of laughs and delicious meal, including a Haggis was enjoyed. The diversity of the Clubs and their activities still amazes me, and I really appreciate the hospitality extended to us both, during these visits, and all the effort that the Members of this District do, and when it comes to raising much needed funds, for those in need in so many of the Communities that make up the District of N2. We travelled to Sydney during January, to attend the MD Council Governors Meeting, and I am proud to say that thanks to all the Membership Chairman of N2 Clubs, we are one of 5 Districts around Australia that has achieved positive growth. Congratulations, but I am sure there is still work that we can do to improve even this milestone. Dr Yamada says Membership is not a number, but a reason to join like-minded individuals, assisting those in need in our Communities,- Lions & if we gain JUST ONE MORE Member at the end of the year, than at the start of the year, we can achieve EXCELLENCE & this will be acknowledged by LCI with an attractive Banner patch for each Club that achieves Just one More. All Clubs can achieve this, and I know all the Clubs are EXCELLENT in their own right, so let s show we can work and ACHIEVE OUR DREAMS TOGETHER for During February Stan & I have continued to visit the last few of the Clubs & by the end of the month all Club visits will be complete. Thank you to all the Clubs again, for their continued support of the shared visits by the DG Team. Please don t forget the Training in early March offered in the Leadership Skills course, on 5 th and 6 th March to be held in Goulburn, & Ulladulla, details of this has been distributed by GLT Coordinator, David & Cab Sec Allan. Remember March to May Membership Months, if all Clubs in our District could endeavour to add at least 1 more Member during this time we would have both another Member to assist in our Communities & our clubs would achieve Excellence, for their Members and their Presidents, let s remember our Members are our Lions Friends, and family take care of each other & respect each other s needs. Thank you for your continued dedication to your Clubs, Communities & Members see you all soon, DG Sally. Secretary of the NSW/ACT Save Sight & Public Healthcare Foundation PDG Ruth Small spent 2 days at the Kangaroo Valley Show selling Raffle Tickets in the Car Raffle.

But horses helping Lions - now that's a twist! In a great show of generosity and community spirit, the NSW Harness Racing Club charity pacer, Abettorrose regularly races for charities and community groups, who receive $2,500 for a win, and, if unsuccessful, the chosen charity still receives $250 just for a start! Last Friday, 29th January Lion Syd, a member of Lions Club of Ingleburn attended the NSW Harness Racing Club meeting held at Menangle Park to cheer on charity pacer a Abettorrose, this beautiful horse trotted bravely for Ingleburn Lions Club, proudly leading for most of the race, but the last couple of hundred meters proved just too much for this fearsome filly.

After many unanswered phone calls and s the club decided to use the funds for equipment for the aged for one of their past members, Kath Bourke. Kath had been a member for about 10 years and only resigned last year when she felt she could no longer contribute what she wished too to club activities. She wrote to the club expressing her heartfelt gratitude and stating that, not only would she be more mobile, but she would enjoy riding the scooter. Kath also said that being 87 years old her health was deteriorating, especially her legs, which had vascular disease, so the electric scooter was especially welcome. The residents of her housing complex were green with envy! Past member of Canberra Brindabella Lions Club with her new electric scooter.

8 Page 8 Lions Club of Jervis Bay Fund Raising Activities Some people like to see Christmas and the New Year period as a time to relax. Members of the Jervis Bay Lions Club, however, have been frantically busy over this period raising money for an assortment of people in need. One of the biggest fundraising efforts actually took place in November when we were partners in an effort to raise over $13000 for the Starlight Foundation in memory of Ollie Tyice, a young lad who passed away early last year. Most of the hard work was done by members of his family who organized a car show that has become a "must see" for locals and car enthusiasts alike and, as usual, the JB Club was there helping out and adding to the amount that was donated to such a worthy cause. In addition to that effort, raffles organized by Lion Bob Hanlon and Lion Lance Stewart and a number of other club volunteers, raised over $1800 for the Nowra Men4Life group and over $3000 for the local Cerebral Palsy Association. (George Melonas, owner of Joylands Amusements with three generations of his family standing shoulder to shoulder with members of the Jervis Bay Lions Club) Sunday 10 January was a really special day for the Club as we worked hand-in-hand with Joylands Amusements who run the Carnival at Huskisson during the Christmas holidays. Joylands is a family business owned and run by the Melonas family. Patriarch George was a valued member of J.B.Lions; he retired due to ill health but is still very much involved with the Club. Each year Joylands Amusements hold a Charity Day in collaboration with J.B.Lions, where Club Members man the ticket booth and the profits go to the club. This wonderful gesture by Joylands Amusements has seen money given to one form of cancer research or another for many years. This year $5500 was raised which is being donated to Australian Lions Childhood Cancer Research Foundation. This joint venture is a real win/win situation - crowds of people get to enjoy the fun of the carnival at half price; the Jervis Bay Lions Club volunteers get the satisfaction of helping to raise money for people in need; Joylands Amusements get that wonderful sense of knowing that they are a caring member of our community; and finally, different bodies that are working against the scourge of cancer receive a sizable donation. Long may this joint venture continue.

11 Page 11 YASS LIONS WORK AT MAYA S REST On Saturday 30 January, Yass Lions Club members laid the new footpath which will provide access from the playground to the reflection area at Maya s Rest at Marchmont near Yass. Maya's Rest is a purpose built home on a small rural property, offering non medically assisted respite for families of children who are undergoing active treatment for life threatening illnesses. A peaceful place families can escape to. Families will be invited into the home of a family who knows firsthand how hard the journey they are on can be. This service will be offered free of charge to approved families. The house has large living areas and two custom designed bedrooms for families who stay, with interconnecting doors, to provide privacy, yet room within the house to relax, play and recharge. Maya's Rest is a legacy to Mark and Tash Maguire s little girl Maya, who was born with a rare form of soft tissue cancer, Rhabdomyosarcoma. Unlike Bear Cottage, Maya's Rest is a non-medically assisted respite, where the families of children undergoing active treatment are required to attend to their child's medical needs. Maya's Rest also opens its doors to families who have children in home based palliative care, offering them a place to escape and recharge. The Yass Lions Club was approached to provide support to Maya s Rest late last year. The Club decided to lay the footpath in front of the playground. The footpath allowed for people to walk from the playground to a reflection area. The cost of the project was around $5,000, provided from the Club s funds and from part of a grant received annually from the Kirk Family Trust. The pavers were sourced from Brisbane as they needed to be similar to pavers used as a remembrance stone for those young children who have passed away. The other equipment needed were purchased from local businesses. With the support of a Yass business which provided the initial landscaping at no cost, Yass Lions provided all the labour for the project. Work began around 8:00am on Saturday 30 January and was finished around 2:00pm just before a torrential downpour arrived.

12 Page 12 Lions Hearing Dogs in Australia History The idea for Lions Hearing Dogs in Australia was conceived in 1980 when two Lions Past District Governors, who were attending a Lions International Convention in the USA, saw the good work of a hearing dogs training centre in Colorado. The Lions Clubs of Australia agreed to support and fund a hearing dogs training centre in Australia. Lions bought a property at Verdun in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia and Gail Gould from the American program came out for two years to start the Lions Hearing Dog program. The first Lions hearing dog was delivered in 1982 to a recipient from Adelaide. The dog s name was Amber and the Lions Club of Edwardstown sponsored the dog. Amber died in Since 1982 the Lions Hearing Dog Centre has placed nearly 500 hearing dogs with recipients Australia wide. Training A Hearing Dog: Our dogs are selected from animal shelters and rescue organisations Australia wide. We look for dogs with a happy and friendly nature and of course, good hearing. They must be between 6 months and 3 years old, and training takes 6-8 months. When the dogs arrive at the centre they spend 2 weeks in quarantine during which time they are desexed, vaccinated, heartworm tested, microchipped and are x-rayed to detect joint problems. The head trainer assesses the potential trainee dog when it arrives at the centre, if it passes this initial assessment, it is allocated to a trainer for the remainder of its training. During this time the dogs learn to locate and respond to 8 specific household sounds, including: smoke alarms door knocks and door bells alarm clocks oven timers and microwaves a baby s cry telephones and TTY (telephone typewriter) whistling kettles Dogs also learn go get, which is to get help or attract attention when their owner or another family member is in trouble. Other training includes obedience and extensive socialisation in a range of environments to prepare them for accompanying their owners into public areas such as supermarkets, restaurants and public transport. A dog gets its P plates when it is placed with its new owner, this recognises that the dog and the owner need to learn to learn to work together as a team during a three-month probationary period. During this time, the owner is offered extensive support from the training centre and from the local sponsoring Lions club. Once all assessment criteria are met and the dog and owner are working well as a team, the dog is certified as a fully fledged Lions hearing dog. It is officially handed over to the owner and receives its orange collar and special identification tag. Each owner, with support from the centre, continues to be responsible for maintaining their dog s high level of training for its entire life.
