The Presque Isle Lions Club will hold its 43rd annual live lobster and prime rib dinner from 4 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, May 14th at the American Legion on Highway W, just West of Presque Isle. This fun and delicious event for the whole family started as a birthday celebration for one of the Lions and has grown into one of the most popular dinners in the Northwoods.
This is a unique event where live lobsters are flown in from Maine and then freshly cooked to order. The evening is filled with a festive atmosphere and provides a terrific social event. Funds raised go towards vital Lions programs that support our community.
In addition, numerous gift baskets and other fun items will be raffled off. There will also be a 50/50 cash raffle that evening.
To reserve a spot at this dinner contact any Presque Isle Lion member or call 715-686-2073. Reservations must be in by Sept. 16. Lobster tickets are $40 and prime rib tickets are $30.

The Presque Isle Lions Club is planning to resume the Annual Lions Rummage Sale.
The sale is planned for August 6, 2022, a single day event at the Presque Isle Community Center.
Due to various factors, the sale will have a few differences from previous years. Limited space and staffing will require the club to limit the type of items that will be accepted. The goal will be to focus on items that have a higher dollar value. A list of example items that will be accepted can be found at Lions Rummage Sale Items.
If you have questions on whether a particular item would benefit the Lions cause, please call 715-892-9811 and we will make a determination regarding acceptance. It is especially important to call ahead of time if you have any physically large items you wish to donate.
The collection point will be on Hwy “W” West of Presque Isle which is the same as prior years. Drop offs will only be accepted on Saturdays from 9 am until noon, starting May 28, 2022 through July 30, 2022.
