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.

96

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 is 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 9-1-1. 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: www.lionsclubs.org/EN/member-center/resources/insurance/index.php.

97

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

International Vice Presidents (according to rank)

Immediate Past International President

International Directors (Board Appointees)

Past International Presidents

Past International Directors

Chairperson, Council of Governors

District Governors

Association Executive Administrator

Association Secretary

Association Treasurer

Past Council Chairperson

Immediate Past District Governor

Vice District Governors

Past District Governors (alphabetically, by last name)

Multiple District Secretaries

Multiple District Treasurers

District Secretaries

District Treasurers

Region Chairperson

Zone Chairperson

District Chairperson

Club Presidents

Club Secretaries

Club Treasurers

Past Club Presidents

Multiple District Secretaries (staff)

Multiple District Treasurers (staff)

99

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)

7 5 3 1 2 4 6

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)

7 5 3 1 Podium 2 4 6 8

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.

100

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 seat 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”).

EMAIL: ETIQUETTE FOR LIONS

1. Be professional. Use the Email: 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 Email: 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 24-48 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.

101

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.

CODE OF ETHICS

TO SHOW my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation for quality of service.

TO SEEK success and to demand all fair remuneration of profit as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own self -respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable acts on my part.

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 hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one another, but that true friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the spirit in which it is given.

ALWAYS to bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my state and my community, and to give them my unswerving loyalty in word, act and deed. 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.

TO BE CAREFUL with my criticism and liberal with my praise; to build up and not destroy.

HISTORY

Multiple District 22

The 16th 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 16th 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 1947. 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

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 67-70 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 www.lionsclubs.org); 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.

Lions Clubs International

Presidential Theme 2014-2015

President

Joe Preston

A “pride” is a close-knit family of lions, as can be found in the savannahs of central Africa. Each member of the pride has responsibilities. Whether they are the hunters, protectors, caregivers, teachers, or learners, they work as a team, for survival and prosperity. If even one member of the pride does not fulfill its role, it can affect the entire group.

There is another group of Lions just as proud. But unlike the lions of Africa, these Lions aren’t feared. Instead they are admired and respected. They, too, form a ring of protection, and they have shown themselves to be skilled hunters – providing food for the hungry and tending to the needs of a different flock. These Lions don’t restrict themselves to grassy plains. Their territory has spread to every corner of the world, and they bring goodness wherever they exist. It’s us – the 1.35 million members of Lions Clubs International.

The English dictionary provides another definition of the word “Pride” – a feeling of happiness that you get when you or someone you know does something good. It is not the pride of being boastful it is the pride of accomplishment in building communities, doing good, and reaching out to assist others.

Lions are indeed a proud organization. There is a feeling of pride shared among our members, knowing that our commitment to serve the needs of others is what has made us, and keeps us, the global leader in humanitarian service. It is the same pride that has sustained us for 97 years.

We can “Strengthen the Pride” by bringing the full Lion’s family, closer together, working in a spirit of cooperation and understanding, with each Lion member doing their share. And we can “Strengthen the Pride” through our many meaningful accomplishments. This is the platform for not only success this year, but through our centennial and well into the next hundred years.
