Deep Creek Lake Lion's Club

Our club serves the Deep Creek Lake, MD area and we run two major programs – the Blind Skiers and Blind Skiers and sponsor fundraisers like the Boat Parade and Casino Nights.
At the 1925 International Convention of Lions, Helen Keller challenged the collected delegates to become “Knights of the Blind” and “to make the lives of the blind more worthwhile everywhere by . . . giving them the joy of normal activity.” For a few weeks each year for over three decades, the Deep Creek Lake Lions have done just that by bringing students from the Maryland School for the Blind to the Deep Creek Lake area to enjoy activities that most fully-sighted property owners take for granted.
