Current Manheim Township Leo Club President Anna was recently notified by Lion Bonnie Eberly,
District 14-D Leo Coordinator, that she was selected as the District’s 2012-13 Leo of the Year. In her letter, Lion Eberly wrote in part: "Congratulations on being selected for this honor. Leos considered for this prestigious award must have:
- demonstrated outstanding leadership skills
- achieved a superior record as a Leo in implementing successful service projects
- made an identifiable contribution to the development and growth of the Leo Club Program
- achieved distinction in community or school activities outside of Leo club commitments and
- demonstrated high ethical standards and personal integrity.
Your nomination form not only provided ample documentation in support of your meeting these stringent requirements, but also documented your outstanding dedication, service and achievement to your Leo Club and community”
Leo President Anna's name and nomination form will now be forwarded to the Pennsylvania State Lions Office for inclusion in competition with the other Pennsylvania Districts' Leos of the Year honorees for possible selection as the State's Leo of the Year. As such, the Leo selected would become the State's representative in the Lions International Competition.
The Members of the Manheim Township Lions Club also wish to congratulate Leo President Anna upon her selection as the District’s Leo of the Year. The Manheim Township Lions Club is both proud and pleased that Leo Anna was selected. This is the second consecutive year that a Manheim Township Leo Club Member has been selected for this honor. The previous 2011-12 District Leo of the Year was Leo Club Secretary Taylor
