Welcome to District 201Q4 a proud part of Lions
International containing over 70 Lions Clubs, nearly 20 Lioness
Clubs & sadly only a couple of Leo Clubs. The size of this District
means we have many different primary producers creating our strong
economy.
From the tourism of the Sunshine Coast we wander
north to the sugar cane fields of Maryborough, Childers, Gin Gin
and the famous Bundaberg Rum products. Along the way you may want
to stop off at beautiful Hervey Bay to see the magnificent Whales
migrating. Further north to pineapples & the Great Barrier Reef
off the coast of Central Queensland. Rockhampton boasts the title
of the Beef Capital and west from there you have the rich coal field
belt and the crops of cotton & sunflower which are a glorious
sight when in full flower.
In the nearby Gemfield area we mine the dazzling
sapphires & further west Longreach claims the visitors heart
with a visit to the famous Hall of Fame a testimony to the early
pioneers of this vast wool producing region. Just a little further
west you come to Winton the home of Waltzing Matilda. Lions in this
marvelous District come from many walks of life but all share a
passion for Lionism & warmly welcome visitors from other areas
and show them a good time whilst visiting 201Q4.
Always mindful of the need to recruit new members
to this wonderful Community service organization members of all
our Clubs welcome enquiries from newcomers to this District and
will make every effort to help you settle in our region of the beautiful
Sunshine State.
