National Anthem
Mother Lanka we worship Thee!
Plenteous in prosperity, Thou,
Beauteous in grace and love,
Laden with corn and luscious fruit
And fragrant flowers of radiant hue,
Giver of life and all good things,
Our land of joy and victory,
Receive our grateful praise sublime,
Lanka! we worship Thee.
Thou gavest us Knowledge and Truth,
Thou art our strength and inward faith,
Our light divine and sentient being,
Breath of life and liberation.
Grant us, bondage free, inspiration.
Inspire us for ever.
In wisdom and strength renewed,
Ill-will, hatred, strife all ended,
In love enfolded, a mighty nation
Marching onward, all as one,
Lead us, Mother, to fullest freedom.
Sent by Carlos André Pereira da Silva Branco

History of Leo Club Programme
Coach Jim Graver started the Leo ball rolling in 1957
and chances are that ball was a baseball. Graver was the
baseball coach of the Abington High School in Pennsylvania,
USA and an active member of the Glenside Lion Club. With
help from his fellow Lion, William Ernst, the first Leo club
was charted on December 5, 1957.
As the world’s first Leo club, the Abington High
School Leo Club created the Leo acronym – Leadership,
Equality, Opportunity – and they chose their school colors,
maroon and gold to serve as the Leo Club colors. Later,
Equality was changed to Experience
In October 1967, the board of directors of Lions
clubs international adopted the Leo club program as an
official program of the association.
The Leo Club program as been growing strong for
over 50 years. Community service remains the cornerstone
of the program. Like their Lion counterparts, Leo club
members enjoy serving their neighbors and watching
positive results unfold.

Leo Club Programme
Leo Clubs are open to young men and women of
good character, ages 12 to 28, who are dedicated to making a
difference in their communities. Each Leo is sponsored by a
Lions Club. Leo Club members elect their own officers,
schedule their own meetings and select their own fundraisers
and service projects.
Popular service initiatives among Leo Clubs include
protection of the environment, community improvement,
Drug abuse prevention, Health education, Educational
assistance, social services, and Citizenship promotion.
The social aspect of the Leo club program provides
opportunities to meet other young people who share common
interests, values and goals. The international scope of Leo
clubs provides for interaction at regional Leo forums, he
Lions international convention, “Club Twinning” or pen pal.
In addition, Leos can apply for participation in the Lions
international youth exchange and youth camp programs.
The Leo Club Program motto is: Leadership,
Experience, Opportunity.

Benefits of Becoming a Leo
For the past 40 years, thousands of young people
have benefited from membership in the Leo club program.
Some of these benefits are tangible; others are intangible
making new friends and viewing the world through another’s
perspective are twoof the benefits of Leo service. As
community volunteers, Leos often develop confidence and
organization skills through this hands-on experience.
Leo club and District offices help young people
develop these skills. In Multiple District 305, Pakistan, Leos
participated in a leadership camp to develop motivational
and organizational skills. Members of the Athens
(Psichikon), Greece Leo club participated in a Leo seminar
organized by their sponsoring Lions Club.
Another benefit of Leo club membership is
experiencing teamwork. The Bandirma (Balikesir) Leos,
Turkey, organized a fundraising dinner. Proceeds from the
dinner benefited children in need. In Cyprus, members of the
Famagysta Leo club work together to create a successful car
wash fund raiser.
Membership in a Leo club also develops fellowship
and camaraderie. As every lion knows, these are essential for
a successful club. One of the many activities enjoyed by the
Tokal Leo club, republic of South Africa, is bowling. The
Leos have also enjoyed attending theatre events together,

As members of a worldwide organization, Leos have
international as well. Leos often participate in the Lions
international youth camps and youth exchange programs.
Leos clubs also participate in the Leo club twinning

Message from the President
Leo Club of Trincomalee Orr’s Hill
Becoming a Leo was probably one of the best decisions
I’ve taken in my life. During this period as being a member of this
great organization there. Hasn’t been many instances where I
haven’t leant anything. Every success, every failure had been a
learning point for me, and the learning never stops.
Let me thank all those Leos and Lions who have helped in
various ways to reach the pinnacle of my leoistic career. Also my
heartfelt gratitude goes to my mother, who was my guiding light
in every steps I took to be here.
I have devised a plan which focuses on our Leos as well as
the community in need, as I believe that the betterment of our
Leos would pave the way for more effective services for the
underprivileged and less fortune.
Let me congratulate and wish all the very best for the
new leoistic year to my club officers and also all the club
members who are the most vital part of our club. I’m certain I will
obtain your fullest support and corporation in achieving my goals
in this period.
Hoping to see you being a part of all our club activities to
be held in the future.
