The new Lion Portal is set to go live APRIL 15, 2024!
Here is our timeline for online access:
-
Thursday, April 11 is the last day for Lions to access anything in the MyLCI – MyLion – Insights systems. It is the last day to input service projects, the last day to check statements or contact information, the last day to input officers or new members in those systems.
-
No system will be available online the weekend of April 12-14. (OH2 Convention weekend)
-
Monday, April 15 to May 13, Lions who have an active account on MyLCI/MyLion will receive an email inviting them to log into the new Lion Portal and create their password. DO NOT PANIC IF YOU DO NOT GET YOUR EMAIL APRIL 15.

Lions Recruiter’s Passport – for all members!
“Why do I serve? Here are two ways I make a difference in the lives of others.”
The new MD13 Lions Passport is designed to get our members more confident with their “Lions Story”. Use the passport with your club to remind veteran members of why they continue in their service. Use it with new members to help them create their story, and to know their importance in the club.
See your zone chairman or the district officers for copies for your club!
Share What We Do As Lions!!
The Ohio Lions have been creating short social-media-ready videos to be used for promoting Lions in our communities. The most effective way we have to share who we are is for our Lions and Clubs to share these videos with their friends and communities.
Check out the videos to share on our Ohio Lions Media playlist! Ohio Lions playlist
