The Culver Lions Club – Founded May 1943 – 68th Anniversary                      

The Culver Lions Club is one of the most active Lions Clubs in Indiana. Seventy members strong and growing, we actively embrace the Lions Club creed “WE SERVE”.

Membership in the Culver Lions provides you the opportunity to get involved in community projects of all types, to meet and get to know your neighbors, enjoy good food, a laugh or two, and through hard work and sharing, a strong sense of being a part of the beautiful, unique community that is Culver.

While the Culver Lions actively supports Lions International programs like the Eye Bank, Leader Dog, and Cancer Control programs; we take a very pro-active stance in local affairs through our work with Culver Community Schools, Park programs, and other civic organizations like the Culver Kiwanis. The Culver Lions provide both funds and volunteer hours to many area charities, school, and civic programs.

Major Fund Raising Events – Fun for All  !      

Our annual Lions Corn Roast is legendary – join us in July for the best local sweet corn you’ve ever tasted! Burgers, soft ice cream, and cotton candy complete the evenings fare! Bring the kids and come by early to help shuck that HUGE pile of corn we get each year!

Stop by our bi-annual Flea Market & Breakfast events! Spring and Fall, you’ll love browsing for that special find and when you need a break from looking – come inside the Depot and enjoy a wide selection of fantastic homemade baked goods for sale and our famous sausage & biscuits or pancakes & sausage breakfasts!

Vandalia Railroad Depot                                      

The Culver Lions lovingly restored this historic building several years ago through energetic fund raising, valuable support from the community at large, financial assistance from the Marshall County Community Foundation and other philanthropic organizations, and countless volunteer labor hours. As leaseholder, the club is the sole caretaker of this historic building and works to maintain the structure’s historical significance. It is listed in Indiana’s Historic Sites Registry and has received The Historical Landmark Award from Marshall County Historical Society.

For wonderful historical photos and writings about the depot you can go to the Culver/Union Township Library’s web site at www.culver.lib.in.us !

Along with being the home of the Culver Lions’ regular meetings and our special fund raising events; the Culver Lions offers the free use of the building for various civic and charity events as a community service. The building, which includes a full service, commercial style kitchen, is also available to the general public to rent for special events such as weddings, reunions, and graduation events. The facility is smoke free and alcohol free.
