Invites you to
The Great Ideas Forum
BANKSTOWN SPORTS CLUB , 8 Greenfield Parade, Bankstown

Registration 8.30am
Session 1 9.00am – 12.30pm
Session 2 1.30pm – 4.30pm
Lions Clubs in the 201N5 District raise millions of dollars a year to assist those in the community who need it most.
We are faced with a dilemma; our ageing membership and our challenge in recruiting new members. If we do not begin to bring in new members now, projections are we will lose around 30% of our members in 5 years time.
This has a direct affect on those we help in the community. What would happen if this funding was to disappear?
What is required is a District wide strategy where we can all work to the same page as one .
- We must increase positive awareness to the public as a District
- We must have a recruitment strategy—where best to place new members?
- We must have a focus to increase our current rate of 1st year retentions
This forum will focus on the following:
- What District is doing to dramatically increase awareness of what Lions do
- How this will impact membership recruitment
- What is our membership recruitment plan? What are the options?
- Suggestions on how we can retain our new members
- What projects can we implement to attract and retain younger people
- How to improve the way we communicate
