Our Vision . . .
To serve our community by having a visible connection with members of our community through service.

A Truly Good History . . .
Lions Club. Our history is a long one. And a proud one. 1917 - The beginning of Lions Club International - Responding to social problems created by WWI and rapid industrialization, a Chicago businessman, Melvin Jones, invited business clubs around the USA to meet where the Association of Lions Clubs formed, Chicago, Ill. For over 100 years, Lions have served with uncommon kindness, putting the needs of neighbors and communities and the world first. Looking back at Lions storied past with pride, they know it's only the beginning. Every day, Lions are building on their legacy with the goal of making an even greater impact on the future.
Coupeville, WA. Our history is an even longer one. And a proud one. Founded in 1853, a gentle climate, wide variety of food and easy access to trees to build longhouses and canoes caused natives to build villages around Penn Cove. Farming, logging and fishing later tempted adventurous and adaptable souls to Whidbey Island's prairies and forests. Today, descendants of early pioneers who helped preserve the beauty of Ebey's prairie, in the town of Coupeville, are members of the Coupeville Lions Club, continuing to be adventurous and productive individuals serving the community which was founded 166 years ago.
