ABOUT US
Tumby Bay Lions Club
The Tumby Bay and District Lions club was chartered on the 28 November 1979. There were 33 charter members who signed the original charter. Some of those original members are still active in the club today.
The history of the Tumby Bay and District Lions shows the many community projects that have supported the town and the community.

Our Community
Tumby Bay and District has changed over the many years since the early development of Eyre Peninsular with an increase in population, consolidation of small farms into large enterprises with multi faceted crops and pastoral activities.
While the face of the community may have taken on a new and more modern look the ideals of the Tumby Lions still remain the same with a strong epmphasis on supporting the community; with members always ready to roll up their sleeves to help individuals, families and the community as a whole.
