The date was December 9th 2024, the time was 5:30 PM, the venue was the Gabriola Golf and Country Club, the reason was the 44th annual Gabriola Lions Club annual Christmas dinner. Some 40 plus Gabriola Lions and some reluctant partners descended upon the clubhouse to enjoy one of the highlights of the season; the annual Christmas Dinner Gala and last meeting of the year. Besides the usual wild comradery and some nervous moments, there was also business to attend to such as the induction of our newest Lions members Nikki Stewart and Aron Capon. Under the steady hand of our social coordinator, Lion Olga pulled off another fine and memorable event with the enlistment of Dawn and her catering crew to produce an excellent meal of turkey and all the fixings, awesome appetizers and a fine array of yummy desserts. Even though the coveted door prize was awarded to the wrong Lion, well done Lion Olga!
