About Lions Club Peace Poster Contest

For over three decades, Lions clubs around the globe have been sponsoring a very special art contest in schools and youth groups. Creating peace posters gives children everywhere the chance to express their visions of peace and inspire the world through art and creativity. For peace to be anything more than a possibility, we need to make it a priority. This year, we’re asking our young students to create a poster that speaks to our world’s infinite potential for kindness once we commit to pursuing the idea of peace without limits. Students ages 11, 12 or 13 as of November 15 are eligible to participate in the International Peace Poster Contest. LEARN MORE >>

Pack the towels and grab your magic bands... First Grade is going to Disney World and the beach! Our Bulldogs enjoyed a little trip to the most magical place in the world. At Disney, they enjoyed riding rides, watching parades, and learning about the parks. The beach bulldogs laid out their towels and learned to hula dance with their leis on. It was the best field trip, all from the comfort of our own classrooms.
