Welcome Lion President Kevin

Stowmarket Lions welcome their new President for 2019-2020.  Kevin Parker took over the chain of office at the end of June and introduced his new team, which includes some who have been members of the Club for some years as well as some of the newer members.  All are keen to get on with the job of providing unmatched community service in and around Stowmarket.
