Centennial Sponsors and Centennial Club Organizers will receive one award of the same type. For example, a Lion who sponsors multiple new Lions will receive one Silver Centennial Lion Award when the first new Lion they sponsor stays for a year and a day. However, a Lion who sponsors a new member and helps charter a new club can earn a progressive level award for both. Once the new member and new club stays a year and a day, the Lion is eligible to receive the Silver Centennial Lion Award for both. 8) When must new members and new clubs be submitted to LCI in order to be counted towards the Centennial Membership Awards Program? The qualification period for the Centennial Celebration Membership Awards program begins April 1, 2015 and runs through June 30, 2018. Any new members sponsored or clubs chartered during this time will count towards Centennial Celebration Membership Awards recognition. 9) If a new member joins an existing club, drops after 6-months of membership and is reinstated, will I still receive credit towards the progressive Centennial Lion Award?
