2025 Fundraising Campaign

Paulette Bailey — Thu, 21 Aug 2025 15:59:03 +0000

It is that time of year to think about ordering some Butter Braid Breads and/or Pecans to help support the Maryville Lions Club to be able to better support our Community. The Butter Braid Breads are available year round but the fresh pecans are only available in the late fall after they are harvested.

The 2025 Butter Braids are $20 each and the Pecans are $11/per one pound bag except for the chocolate pecans that are $12/one pound bag due to the increase in the cost of chocolate. To order any of these items, please contact us at maryvillelions@gmail.com or complete the contact us page.

The Maryville Lions Club primary focus is the preservation of eyesight and we do this through the following services we offer:

Vision Screening at daycares, preschools, Maryville City Schools, and other events/clinics
Free eye exams/glasses for those that qualify
Eyeglass recycling
Assistance with attaining free or low cost surgeries such as cataracts, corneal replacements, etc.

Individual members provide other community service with regard to hunger, mental wellness, diabetes awareness, environmental issues, etc. Where there is a need, the Lions are her to serve.

Maryville Lions host a Cruise-In Oldies Car Event (OTTO)- Oct 21st w/28th as the raindate

Paulette Bailey — Thu, 21 Sep 2023 19:22:48 +0000

Twice a year the Maryville Lions Club host a “Cruise-In” car event (OTTO – Oldies to the Oldies) where vintage cars parade to various Healthcare/Asst Living facilities in Blount County, park for approx 40 minutes and talk with the residents from the facilities that come out and reminisce about the days when they may have driven a particular car. One lady asked if we have a car with a rumble seat because her “Georgie” first kissed her there! It’s lots of fun for all and at the end of the day we meet at “Hops Diner” for some good food and award prizes for all participants. In the 3 years we have been doing this we have grown from 8 participants to over 20. Please come join in the fun and show off your car or truck!
