Projects supported by the Narooma Lions Club

Support to rural fire services
We have provided funds to the rural fire services of Central Tilba, Narooma and Dalmeny so those organisations could purchase essential equipment that, in turn, will help their members protect lives and property in the Narooma area.

Lions Preschool Scholarship
In 2008 Narooma Lions Club will be offering a Lions Preschool Scholarship to Narooma Preschool. This will enable a four-year-old child who would otherwise miss out on that all-important year of preschool before starting school to attend.
Nominations are currently being sought through local early childhood professionals.
Narooma - Dalmeny Cycleway project
During 2006, Narooma Lions Club contributed to the Narooma - Dalmeny cycleway project, a six-kilometre dedicated cycleway linking the two towns and traversing magnificent coastal scenery. When completed, we believe this will be one of the most scenic cycleways in Australia. The cycleway will also provide a facility for the fitness and health of residents.
