Seaforth Lions marked the 35th }anniversary of the founding of the club at a special dinner Wednes- day evening when accomplish- melts of the club were reviewed. The first meeting of the club was held in January, 1925, when the charter was presented, and at the following meeting the club un- dertook ' the establishment of a park and swimming pool to serve the Seaforth district. How successful this venture has been is indicated by ,the pictures' on this page. Today the Seaforth Lions Club owns and maintains an eight -acre Park, through which wind the wa- ters of Silver Creek, complete with a new 100x45 swimming pool, with modern filtration plant; illuminat- ed ball diamond, and well-equipped picnic facilities. The park is well supervised and lifeguards and in- structors are in attendance during the summer months. A commo- dious bathhouse provides dressing rooms, showers and a well-equip- ped refreshment counter. At the upper right is a"view. of the park, showing the carefully - tended grounds, the cool waters of Silver Creek, and in the rear the large bathhouse. Lower right is a view of the modern pool. In 1959 more than 26,000 swimmers took advantage of the Lions ,pool facilities. `Highlight of the summer season is the Lions carnival—a three-day event that raises funds with which toassist in 'maintaining the park. In the picture, upper left, is a por- tion of the crowd that attended the 1958 carnival. Activities for boys and girls oc- cupy a large place in the Lions Club program. One of the most popular eventsis the fish derby, Hundreds of area children took part hi the 1957 derby shown in the middle picture left. Floodlights, which add much to the usefulness of the park, were installed in 1948. The lower pic- tures on the ,left, show the scene as the lights were `turned -on for the first time by the then presi- dent, James M. Scott.
