Ask any small town community member "Just what does Lind
have that would appeal to a visitor"? It may take a few
minutes for a logical and meaningful response, but he/she
will usually say, "Well, it takes a group of men and
community volunteers who hold the heart of Lind in their

also take pride in quietly helping individuals or groups.
The objectives of the Lind Lions Club are simple: Support
all of the youth organizations in the community, and then
give a helping hand to any other organization needing it!
Simple as that! With 50 members strong, the Lind Lions Club
continues to donate their time, and effort to the Lind
Community. Plans for the 23rd Combine Demolition
Derby™ are currently underway, a weekend continuing to add
to the warmth and appealing nature of the club and
community. It's apparent, too, when the arena stands are
filled "to the brim" with 5,000 (or more) visitors who
travel from all parts of the United States to attend the 3-day
celebration. Ask a visitor to describe the derby and
you'll hear, (among other things) that the derby is
"Unusual, Weird, Entertaining, Unique, Unbelievable and
Awesome!"
Just what did our Lind Lions Club really do for the Lind
community in 2010? Besides improving their arena with three
additional bleachers, installing a new chain-link fence on
the west side of the Arena grounds,
added some additional RV parking, provided space for the FFA
and ASB concession stands, improved the main gate ticket
booth, and sponsored and donated to the following:
