Navan, Ontario, Canada
Our small but vigorous club has been serving the community of Navan, near Ottawa, since 1952.
This is where to find out about the services we can provide, including support to other community organisations.
Most of our activities involve fundraising and giving the money to individuals in need or to larger causes.
More than 1.4 million Lions in over 200 countries are responding to local and global challenges with kindness and care.
This bonspiel is a family-friendly event and is geared toward a MEDIUM skill level, but ALL skill levels are welcome. We have a 24-team limit so sign up today as this event sells out fast! Don’t forget to bring some money for our 50/50 and silent auction.
Cost is $320 per team.
You get Two (2) curling draws, Charcuterie board and light snacks and a catered sit-down dinner with a live band.
Curlers and visitors are encouraged to visit our silent auction downstairs in the Lions Den.
So, get your team together, dust off your slider and get ready to HURRY HARD!
If you are not able to participate in this amazing bonspiel, please consider sponsoring a team. A portion of the money raised will be directed to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Society with the remainder going to other worthy causes via the Navan Lions Club. If you are interested in sponsoring a team, please reach out to Brian Moore at Navanlionsclub@gmail.com
President: Tony Fiorentino
Secretarial Team: Mark O’Donoughue and Chris MacPherson
Treasurer: Bob Noakes
Your Navan Lions continue to remain busy preparing for the Curling Bonspiel (6-7 December), in honor of Jerry Calver, a once proud and active member of the Navan Lions Club, who sadly lost his fight to pulmonary fibrosis roughly ten years ago. Part of the proceeds from the bonspiel will be given to the Canadian Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (CPFF). Lions Luc Picknell and Brian Moore are leading the charge and are still looking for teams and sponsors. Anyone interested in participating and/or supporting the event is encouraged to visit our website at https://navanlions.ca/.
Many organizations, both locally and regionally, continue to benefit from our fundraising efforts. Recently, financial support was offered to the Shepherds of good Hope as well as to the Ottawa Mission. The following organizations have also recently been awarded a donation from the Navan Lions Club: The Orléans-Cumberland Community Resource Centre, Make-A-Wish Canada, The Hannah-Billings Fund, The Navan Pavilion Project, Campfire Circle, Isaruit Inuit Arts and Quick Start Autism. As long as we have the support of our community and the necessary funds, your Navan Lions will continue to provide assistance to organizations and people in need.
Anyone interested in learning about Lionism and becoming more involved in the community as part of our club are encouraged to contact us through our website or to speak to a member.
Special Thanks to the Friends of Mer Bleue for financial support in the design of this website.
