Please remember that not only is the Annual Ormeau Lions Fair an excellent weekend out but the funds raised go to many good (and local) causes and make a huge difference in the lives of others.
The team at Ormeau Lions work hard all year round so make sure you thank them whenever you get the chance!
From everyone in Ormeau, THANK YOU Ormeau Lions, keep up the great work!
The money given to the highway christian church is inappropriate in comparison to the other organisations. The restoration society for example would I feel be a much more appropriate organisation for that amount of funds.
The Highway Christian Church help the ormeaufair in paying for all the tables and chairs at the fair and the Ormeau Lions Fair gives money back to the Church to help put on Carrols by Candlelight at Peachy Road Ormeau each Christmas, so you the public can come and enjoy Christmas and have a good time
The Ormeaufair and Carrols are free to public, and that is why I started the Fair to give all the public, something free to go to and enjoy as a family and have a good time.
As President of the Ormeau Lions, our Motto is to ” Give ” and ” Help ” all year round and that is what the Lions are all about.
If you or any of the public want to help the Lions, please call, it would be great to have you on board with us.
