On Saturday, October 6, 2018, the Bark River Lions Club celebrated its 75th Anniversary. The banquet was held at the Highland Golf Club in Escanaba. Along with celebrating 75 years of service to their community, the Bark River Lions were also presented with the “Top Dog” award from Leader Dogs for the Blind, in recognition of their long standing commitment to the organization and continued financial support toward the goal of developing Leader Dogs for the visually impaired, a core commitment of Lions International.
