The Bismarck Lions Club conducts vision screenings on pre-school students, most recently on Nov. 25 at Bismarck-Henning Elementary School. KidSight, a Lions Club community service program, provides a simple and noninvasive vision screening test. The Club recently purchased their own Plusoptix vision screening machine. At no cost to the students, the testing screens for several conditions including “lazy eye.” Please contact any Bismarck Lion if your group would like a vision screening. The Club will accept donations of glasses and hearing aids. From their inception, Lions International has been a champion in helping combat vision impairment and blindness.
The Bismarck Lions Club meets the first and third Monday of each month at 7 p.m. Lions clubs are a group of men and women who identify needs within the community and work together to fulfill those needs. Chartered in 1956, the Bismarck Lions Club celebrates 70 years of service in 2026.
