Triple Top Mountain Run
After 26 years of nurturing and fine tuning, the Kentish Lions have made the decision that the Triple Top Mountain Run has now outgrown the club.
The Kentish Lions Club has found a new operator to run the event. Ultrain owners John Claridge and Amy Lamprecht will now take over the event. Both have been competitors in the event over many years and know only too well all the difficulties of the course and are experienced in running other events in Tasmania.
The Kentish Lions Club will continue to support the event in any way it can and wishes John and Amy all the best for the future.
"Thanks to the Lions Club and to everyone who has supported the event over the years."
Frank and Elizabeth Atkins

THE NEW YEAR
Kentish Lions club is looking forward to putting 2020 behind us.
While the future is looking brighter, opening borders will no doubt incur the occasional Covid - 19 in our community, the new contact tracing and quarantining rules will allow life to continue pretty much as it did before. Of course there are still rules that are basic to our health and safety, such as dining with social distancing. To that end we have had dinner meetings at various other venues seeking greater space between us.
Of course there was no Christmas Parade this year. Lions helped out with the Carols by Candlelight in Sheffield's beautiful King George V Park which was a great sucess.
Kentish Lions also ran the Kentish Neighbour Day just before Christmas. Around 250 people attended over the 3 hours. The idea of Neighbour Day was to lift the mood after a long winter lockdown with a Covid-safe event. However shocking weather on the planned day in October saw the event cancelled and moved to 18/12. Lions arranged their food van with free sausage sizzle for the day, performers Shasa Bolton, the Kentish U3A Ukulele group and Lion Phil Daniell entertained the crowd. A jumping castle, rock painting and other activities also made the day a success we can be proud of.
After a little break over the holiday period, Lions will resume in the second half of January.
