The Drouin Lions Club have been honoured to run the Gippsland Garden and Home Expo annually at Lardner Park for the past 19 years. In that time, we have raised more than $600,000 which has been distributed back to the community. What an outstanding achievement. Something our members are very proud of.

The Drouin Lions Club would like to thank so many people who supported the Expo in the past and helped to make it such a wonderful event for Gippsland. Firstly, to all Lions members from Drouin Lions Club. Your tireless efforts have been nothing short of miraculous, with a special thanks to Lion’s member Maureen Versteden for her leadership over so many years.

Thanks to all our outstanding sponsors. We couldn’t have done it without you. Our major sponsor during this time being Community Bank Drouin & District. Your sponsorship gave us the opportunity to present many outstanding TV and radio personalities. Many businesses local, and from surrounding areas have been there and supported & sponsored us over the years. Drouin Lions Club wish to thank every one of you for your support, which enabled us to bring the Garden and Home Expo to the community.

To all the other clubs, groups & schools that have supported us, we say a huge thank you. It has brought great joy and satisfaction to us, knowing that you have all appreciated the opportunity to raise funds of your own.

To all our exhibitors that have returned year after year it was always great to see you back. We have had so much fun working with you all. We wish you all success moving forward with the new Lardner Park Garden and Home Expo.
