128 ALERT in a Nutshell What should Lions do in the event of a disaster? This plan of action will be useful for any disaster whether natural or manmade where two or more clubs are likely to be asked to respond. 1. Lions take care of your family first! Are they in a safe place? Is anyone injured? Do they have shelter, food, and water? 2. Lions take care of your club members! When a local incident occurs, use your internal ALERT phone tree to verify that all members are accounted for. You can ask the same questions you have asked your family. 3. Unless you are a trained first responder or suddenly find yourself at the scene of an incident, do not respond directly to the scene of the disaster. Our role is to respond as a coordinated team with the backing of the local disaster relief organizations, the community, and the governmental authorities. Volunteers should be screened, trained, assigned a task and location, and given a person to report to. All volunteers should be logged in regarding their duties, role, place of work, and hours of work. a. Watch and listen to local TV and radio announcements that may indicate where volunteers are being screened. b. Call your County Volunteer Coordinator or Red Cross Response Team to get this staging information. (You have been working with them before the disaster occurred, haven t you?) c. Call your Lions ALERT County Coordinator that is listed in the District ALERT POC listing for this information (contact Chair Myron Horn for this information). 4. As the scope of the incident increases, more Lions may need to get involved. a. Local ALERT chairs should contact nearby clubs and the ALERT County Coordinator when requesting help. b. County Coordinators should make sure all local clubs have been notified and notify adjoining County Coordinators. c. If a full District response is likely to be required, notify District ALERT Coordinator and District Governor. 128

129 ALERT (Continued) 5. If an LCIF Grant is required, the District Governor must make the request. The District Treasurer must arrange funds transfer and track how funds are used. The District Secretary will record the clubs involved, the hours worked, and the services performed. The District ALERT Coordinator will assist the Secretary in completing an After Action Report. CLUB SAFETY OFFICER Every club should have a safety officer whose job it is to improve the safety of each Club event. The Safety Officer should inspect the event site in order to identify and correct possible safety concerns. Although not a complete list, here are some common things the safety officer should be looking out for: Adequate lighting inside and outside of the event site. Overloaded electrical circuits Loose or misaligned equipment Equipment not properly maintained Dull blades Trip hazards Loose or non-existent traction pads on steps or ramps Overhead hazards Supplies or equipment stacked too high Presence of first aid kit and fire extinguisher Improperly marked exit signs Presence and use of personal protective equipment (goggles, hearing protection, fluorescent traffic vests, etc.) No matter how good the safety inspection, things happen. When something happens that injures a Lion, a guest, or a private citizen, provide immediate first aid and assistance. If there is any doubt at all, call The experts can decide if the victim needs to be transported. Any incident where additional medical treatment is likely should be reported to the District Governor and to LCI. The LCI carries insurance that should be in effect for any Lions sponsored event. Provide evidence of automatic insurance coverage from Lions International for your events. Lions can produce their own Certificate of Insurance through the following: center/resources/insurance/index.php. 129

132 PROTOCOL Official Protocol Protocol is an official expression of good manners. The courtesy we show each other in our everyday lives affects our attitudes, our work and, in turn, how we view ourselves as human beings. Protocol means respect for position. It is a form of etiquette. Protocol is nothing more than exhibiting GOOD MANNERS to an invited guest of your District or Club. Order of Precedence The following is the official protocol policy of the International Association of Lions Clubs. Only the principal speaker is required to acknowledge all dignitaries present. Lions shall be recognized in the following order: International President Immediate Past International President/LCIF Chairperson International Vice President (according to rank) Past International President International Director (Board Appointee) LCIF Board of Trustees Past International Directors GLT/GMT International Coordinators, Family and Women International Coordinator GLT/GMT Constitutional Area Leader LCIF Area and Regional Coordinators, FWC/GLT/GMT Area Leaders and Special Area Advisors/Japan Vice Constitutional Area Leaders Chairperson, Council of Governors District Governors International Administrative Officers/Constitutional Area Executive Staff Immediate Past Council Chairperson Past Council Chairpersons Multiple District FWC/GLT/GMT and LCIF Coordinators Immediate Past District Governor Vice District Governors (according to rank) Multiple District Committee Chairpersons Past District Governors Multiple District Secretary Multiple District Treasurer District 22W Cabinet Secretary District 22W Cabinet Treasurer District FWC/GLT/GMT and LCIF Coordinators Region Chairperson Zone Chairperson District Committee Chairperson Club Presidents Immediate Past Club Presidents Club Past Presidents Club Secretaries Club Treasurers 132

133 PROTOCOL (Continued) General Comments When a Lion holds more than one title, he or she shall be recognized for the highest one. In areas that have positions in addition to those previously listed, they should be recognized in accordance with local customs, provided that elected officers always have precedence over appointed ones. It is recommended that Melvin Jones Fellows be recognized as a group. In introducing speakers, their status as Fellows should be mentioned. Non-Lion Dignitaries Non-Lion dignitaries should be given precedence in accordance with local protocol and/or custom, keeping in mind that if the non-lion is the principal speaker, then he or she should be seated to the right of the chairman. Head Table Seating The presiding officer or meeting chair must always be seated at the most central seat at the table when there is no central podium, shown as seat number one in the following diagram (Figure 1). The principal speaker should occupy seat number two, then other Lion dignitaries in accordance with the general order of precedence. If possible, there should be the same number of seats to the right and left of the chair or presiding officer (who would normally be the Club President, District Governor, Council Chair or International President). Figure 1 (Audience) As shown in Figure 2, seating at the head table with a podium is essentially the same, except the meeting chair or presiding officer is always seated at the left of the podium (facing the audience) and the principal speaker at the right. Figure 2 (Audience) Podium When spouses are present, they should be seated to the member s left when on the left side of the table, and to the member s right when seated on the right side of the table. 133

134 PROTOCOL (Continued) Multi-Head Tables If there is more than one head table, the table at the highest level shall be considered the primary one. Care should be taken not to sit Lions of the same rank at different tables. Head Table Introductions Introduction of the head table should begin with the meeting chairman or presiding officer and then continue from the person with the lowest rank on the order of precedence to the person with the highest. When spouses are present at the head table, they should be introduced with the member (e.g. Past International Director John Doe and his wife Jane ). ETIQUETTE FOR LIONS 1. Be professional. Use the addresses of Lions for Lions business only. (No jokes, stories, political or religious messages.) 2. Include your name and club name in your response. There are hundreds of Lions in our district and everyone does not always recognize your address. 3. Do not use the reply all feature unless the response is applicable to everyone who was copied on the original message. 4. Respond in a timely fashion; usually within hours. If you need more time to formulate a complete response, send a reply indicating this so that the sender knows you have received the message and are working on the issue. 5. If you or your club have had problems with phishing scams, please go to the link below. Learn how to protect yourself, your Lions club and the Association from phishing

135 OFFICIAL VISIT OF DISTRICT GOVERNOR Your District Governor is required by Lions Clubs International to make at least one official visit to every club within the District. In most cases the District Governor is the highest ranking officer of Lions Clubs International to visit the Club during the year. On the occasion of the Official Visit, certain procedures or protocol should be followed: 1. Do not schedule other programs during this visit. 2. Publicize your Governor s visit. 3. Have your attendance committee strive to secure excellent attendance at this meeting. 4. Encourage all members to wear their Lions Club name badges. 5. Have your District Governor properly introduced to each Lion and Lioness. Usually the President or Master of Ceremonies should do this. The Cabinet Secretary, or other District Officer, will provide the official introduction of the District Governor during the meeting 6. When the Governor is introduced, the Club members should stand, and in like-manner, should also stand at the conclusion of the talk. 7. A brief Board of Directors meeting should be scheduled following the regular meeting. This is the appropriate time for members to ask questions and participate in a discussion with the Governor. Accordingly, full attendance by the Board is appreciated, as well as attendance by all other interested members of the Club. To permit the Governor to be able to respond and offer the best possible attendance, it would be appreciated if special problems or questions are made known to the Governor well in advance of the visit. 8. Your District Governor welcomes suggestions for improvements in the District. 135

WHENEVER a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself. TO HOLD friendship as an end and not a means.

To give them freely of my time, labor and means. TO AID others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid to the weak, and my substance to the needy.

145 HISTORY Multiple District 22 The 16 th District of Lions Clubs International was organized in 1921 and consisted of the states of New Jersey, New York, Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia. Because of rapid growth, it became necessary in 1922 to divide the area New Jersey remained as the 16 th District, New York became District 20, and Maryland, Delaware and D.C. became District 22. The Baltimore club was the first to organize (October 26, 1921) within the boundaries of the present District 22. In 1940, District 22 was divided into Districts 22-A and 22- B. In 1944, District 22-C was organized, followed by Districts 22-D and 22-W in The Frederick club was the first to have organized (June 7, 1922) within the boundaries of the present Sub-District 22-W. Multiple District 22 is divided into the following sub-districts: District 22-A Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Harford and Howard Counties and Baltimore City District 22-B Caroline, Cecil, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne s, Somerset, Talbot, Wicomico and Worchester Counties District 22-C Calvert, Charles, Montgomery, Prince George s, St. Mary s Counties and the District of Columbia District 22-D State of Delaware District 22-W Allegany, Carroll, Frederick, Garrett and Washington Counties 145

147 CLUB CHARTER NIGHT Charter Night is a special event celebrating the beginning of a new Lions club as well as an annual celebration or birthday for the club. The first task is to appoint a Charter Night chairperson and Charter Night committee. The next task is to select a Charter Night date. For new clubs, this takes place approximately 90 days after the charter approval date. For existing clubs, this takes place at a date during the month in which the charter was originally approved. The next task is the preparation and mailing of Charter Night invitations. The chairperson and his/her committee should confirm attendance, secure entertainment, invite and provide accommodations (if necessary) for the guest speaker, ensure the room is set properly and check that equipment is in working order. It is customary to invite the Lions clubs in your district and those within a reasonable distance. It is also customary to invite the members of the sponsoring club as well as the current district governor, the district governor s spouse or companion and all past district governors within the district (see pages of this roster book for this information). Another task is to design and print a suitable program for the event. Contents of the program typically include: Cover with club name, Charter Night date, event location and the Lions logo (available at name of sponsoring club, list of the charter club officers, directors and members; program agenda; list of people the club wishes to thank; list of club contributions. CHARTER NIGHT CHECKLIST Executive Committee Appoint a charter night chairperson, preferably the immediate past club president Choose a Charter Night date Divide responsibilities among committees Review and approve plans Finance Committee Determine the budget Set the cost of admission Approve expenses Invitations/Entertainment Committee Design and distribute invitations at least 30 days prior to event. Invite prominent community officials and confirm their attendance (Note: If you invite local officials, the club is expected to cover the cost of their attendance. Clubs should be prepared to allow each to present prepared remarks.) Invite guest speakers Arrange travel and accommodations (if necessary) 147

150 Highlights of the International Theme: THE FUTURE IS NOW As we enter our second century of global humanitarian service, we continue to evolve to meet the ever-changing needs. This is truly an exciting time to be a Lion. Our new strategy LCI Forward was developed as a road map for Lions to plan, implement and achieve our vision for the future and meet the growing needs of the world (insert LCI Forward graphic). This new strategy will enhance our service framework, reshape public opinion and improve visibility, improve our club, district and organizational excellence and improve our membership experience while reaching new markets. New products, such as the new Lions mobile app, will provide our members the ability to connect witheach other like never before sharing service ideas, photos, videos, and information bringing Lions together regardless of their location. We have to make the world aware of just how big the world s problems are, and how relatively simple they are to solve if everyone works together. I feel proud and blessed to be your leader at this most auspicious moment, as we begin our second century of global humanitarian service. On June 7, 1917, in the LaSalle Hotel in Chicago, businessman Melvin Jones announced an ambitious initiative an association dedicated to the central principle of serving others. He faced many skeptics. There were people who considered it impossible. However, today it is a reality. Today, 1.4 million people walk his path of service to others. There is no greater pleasure in life than to make a dream come true. To make miracles happen. Pick 150

151 the most improbable dream and spend your life making it come true. Pick a dream that makes each precious moment in your life worth living. Becoming your international president is a dream come true for me. But that is only part of my dream. The rest of my dream is something all of us as Lions share together a dream that every child in the world is born to a happy, caring family, and is given every opportunity to thrive. Like Gandhi, let us lose ourselves in this dream, for that is where we will find ourselves. With a new service framework and the addition of diabetes as one of our new causes, a reshaping of our service programs, a new marketing technology initiative, a vibrant LCI Forward global strategy, and a new century before us, the future is ours, and the future is now. I have always believed it is important to leave the world better than we found it, and a better place for our children and their children. That philosophy has served me well as a club president, district governor, international director, and international vice president. With your help, it will continue to serve me as your international president. And together we will expand our legacy of service. The time to act is now. We can help and we WILL help. Each and every one of you can have a lasting impact. Join hands with me today in committing to serve 200 million lives annually in our new century of service. 151
