Several months ago, seven of our members commenced a program that involves assigning an experienced Lion to mentor each new Denver Den member. So far, the program has provided these new Lions the opportunity to develop a relationship with dedicated Lions who can explain more about our club, including especially the importance and value of getting directly and immediately involved in Club activities. All mentors have reported positive interactions with their mentees and mentees share the mentors’ enthusiasm.
As we greet more new members, we need to increase our number of mentors to encourage early involvement in Club activities and educate them about the Club. If you are interested in this opportunity to help new members, please contact me and we can discuss what to expect from the mentoring experience.

Finally, on a personal note: To me the primary benefit of mentoring is the development of the reLatIONShip!! Thanks for your attention to this matter. – Lion Doug Brown
