The Seadrift Lions donated $100 to the D.I.V.A. Girls towards their end of summer trip to San Antonio. The DIVA Girls held a bake sale and car wash to earn money for their trip.

D.I.V.A Girl has programs that are geared towards social and educational development for girls 8-18 and a Summer Travel Club that posts events weekly for girls 11 & up. The DIVA Girl Travel Club started in June 2010 and has included over 20 girls in the program. The girls have visited several museums such as Houston Museum of Health-Natural Science-Fine Arts-Holocaust and Cockrill Butterfly Exhibit to name just a few. Each trip is a learning experience! The Seadrift Lions made a donation of $100 in 2010 to help these girls get started on their very first trip. Since then the trips have been possible by each girl paying a small trip fee.

DIVA Girls DREAM Big, INSPIRE Others, VOLUNTEER to help, ACHIEVE their goals.

The Seadrift Lions are a part of a global service organization. Our community projects often support local children and schools through scholarships, recreation and mentoring. We also sponsor campers who are diabetic, handicapped, or have Downs Syndrome to the Texas Lions Camp in Kerrville, Texas at no cost to the camper. Internationally, we offer many programs, including the Peace Poster Contest, Youth Camps and Exchange and Lions Quest. If you are interested in learning more about Lions Clubs and our projects, visit our website at www.seadriftlions.org. You can also find us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/SeadriftLions. Our club meets every second and fourth Thursday at 6:30pm in the Community Room at First National Bank in Seadrift. We would love to have you visit!
