About Us
  When you are a Lion, you can be as busy as you want to be. Our club has a variety of goals and community projects and our membership always meets the challenge.
 
  Annual Santa Project
 


 

Each year children from the Abingtons, who are signed up by their parents, receive a visit and a gift from Santa. This annual tradition, which began nearly 50 years ago, continues today. Many life long residents have fond memories of being visited by the Abington Lions Santa as children. Over 400 children are visited each year.
 
  College Scholarships
 


 

We award multiple scholarships each year to graduates of Abington Heights High School. In 2009, we provided two $1500 awards. The scholarships represent our support of educational excellence in the Abingtons.
  Eye Glass Collection
 


 

Some of our members have traveled to Haiti and Latin America. When they go on these missions, they take along eye glasses that are collected during the year and they are distributed to people who are in need.
 
  Holiday Coffee Breaks
 

For Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving, the club sponsors coffee and treats for travelers along Interstate 81. It is a great way for us to greet visitors to our region, and you'd be surprised at all the Lion members we meet.
  Adopt A Highway
 

 

Four times each year, a group of eager beavers, umm, Lions, clean a 2-mile stretch of Route 6 in Clarks Summit. We've been doing this for over 13 years.
