We celebrated our Charter Night on December 6, 1949 at a dinner in Hillcrest Hall, Minersville, PA. On November 13, 1999, the club observed its 50th anniversary, with three charter members still within the club: Clervant Artz, Thomas Asenavage and Dr. Robert Boran.At the Lions State Convention in Philadelphia in May 1974, the club received State and National recognition when Lion Gerard Brennan was elected District Governor of District 14K with jurisdiction of over 76 clubs.
