Become a Lion and serve your community all year. Olympia Host Lions Club welcomes new members - men and women - who are interested in helping our neighbors. We have been serving the Olympia area since 1935 with projects like vision screening in schools, our Low Vision Resource Center, support for Camp Leo for Children with Diabetes, the NW Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center. Come help us recycle plastic film to keep it out of Puget Sound and the landfill. Lend a hand at our Sensory Garden at Port of Olympia. Flip a burger at Lakefair or deliver apples in the fall. Or bring us your service idea - we love new projects! (And our meetings each Tuesday feature informative speakers on topics of interest - come learn what is going on in our town!)

Volunteers sort clean plastic film and package to ship to Trex for turning into Trex furniture. Work one or two hours - or until you get tired. On the spot training - this is easy to learn work and you'll enjoy seeing the bags of plastic film that won't be going to the landfill or littering our area. Good for individuals or small groups. Work at your own pace, come anytime during sorting hours. Safe location inside the Thurston County Food Bank warehouse.
