Roll of Honour
Bundaberg Lion Awards
Presented at 2021/2022 Changeover
The Bundaberg Lions Club is having a catch up of awards because of covid and other delays. These awards have been earned over many years. The Bundaberg Club has not been a prolific Award giver as our members are a humble lot and just get on with it. Any award from the Bundaberg Lions Club is sure to be well earned. We are slowly catching up with awards but still have a few to go.
