Our Work
Past District Governors
The Past District Governors Organization is made up of Lions in Wisconsin who are former District Governors. Even though our year as District Governor is over, our leadership skills, knowledge and experience are still viable. We feel that we are a valuable resource and still have a lot to give. Some of our Goals are:
Education: To aid in educating the Lions of the District and Multiple District in all aspects of Lionism.
Motivation: To help in motivating the Lions of Multiple District 27 in all aspects of growth, leadership and retention.
Unity: To ensure that all Lions continue to rally in support of the programs and projects of the MD- 27 Council and LCI.
The PDGO also handles the MD27 Convention Seminars-Moderator/Monitors, supports Wisconsin Lions Leadership Institute and supports District Governor Spouses or significant other. We continue to look for other ways to support the Leadership for MD 27.
