Dear Lions and Leos of New Jersey MD16,

In accordance with Article VI of the Constitution and By-Laws of Multiple District 16, I, Brad Day, Council Chair, MD16, hereby issue the official Call for the 2027 New Jersey State Convention.

We will gather in Atlantic City beginning Thursday, May 13th, and conclude on Saturday, May 15th, 2027, for a weekend dedicated to fellowship, service, leadership, and the business of our association. The purpose of the convention is to elect District Officers, including Governors and Vice Governors for the Sub-Districts, and to conduct such other businesses as may properly come before the body.

As in years past—and continuing to grow—we will offer a full convention program including educational seminars, exhibits, a service project, Memorial Service, LCIF events and hospitality room, awards presentations, Sub-District meetings, the Strides Walk for Diabetes, and our signature Saturday evening Gala.

We are honored to welcome our international guest, International Director Daniel Marney Elkins, whose leadership and commitment to Lionism exemplify service at its very best. Click here to read more about him.
