Community

You make healthy choices for your family, but it can be a challenge in today’s fast-paced world. We promote and pursue collaborative partnerships by initiating, sponsoring or promoting local heathy activities. We also work closely with our local healthcare facilities to help bring the best possible healthcare to our residents.

Shamrock Shuffle

The Lake Chelan Lions Club sponsored their Annual Shamrock Shuffle Fun Run on Saturday, March 18, 2023. The effort came about from the Lions’ dedication to helping fight diabetes. Partnering with this event on our Valley’s favorite parade, the Wayne Kelly Memorial Top Dog Parade, the day serves as a great reminder of what small communities can do for the people who live here.  Adults, kids, families and even a few dogs walked and ran the course to raise $2584 to send some of our local students to camps in Washington State designed to help them enjoy life and manage their diabetes.   If you know a student who would benefit from a camp like this, please contact the club for more information.

Lake Chelan Lions Club is proud to partner with our sponsor, Lake Chelan Health & Wellness Foundation.  Through a cash donation, LCHWF is making this event possible. Together, we hope to encourage our valley to keep active, and put their health first through education and awareness.
