The Lions Roar
The Lions Environmental Photo Contest provides a way for Lions
and Leos to portray, through an origi- nal photo, their pride and commit- ment to improving, protecting and preserving the environment. The con- test begins at the club level where every Lion and Leo can enter a photo- graph of his or her immediate sur- roundings into the club-level Lions Environmental Photo Contest. Win- ning photographs advance to the district, multiple district and interna-
tional competi- tions.
Those photo- graphs that ad- vance to the in- ternational com- petition will be
displayed at Lions International Conven- tion where registered attendees will vote for their favorite photograph. The three photos with the most votes will be de- clared winners. The winners will be dis- played on the Environmental Photo Con- test Winner's webpage and the photogra-
phers will receive an award.
Please review the Photo Contest Rules for additional details.
Council Chairpersons should submit a com- pleted and signed Multiple District Entry Form along with the multiple district photo contest entry to Lions Clubs International by March 1, 2017 for consideration.
