History of Lions Hall of Calicut
The lions CLub of Calicut has always been a trendsetter in the field of lionism, and an icon to be emulated by innumerable clubs that sprang up in the state, later on.
From the beginning the regular meeting of the club used to be held at Hotel Alakapuri.
With the initiation of numerous service projects, a permanent place for the club became a necessity. A land and building commitee was constituted for this purpose in 1996. In the year 2000, a suitable land at Rajiv Nagar colony, with an area of 14.5 cents was purchased costing Rs 11.5 Lakhs. This was possible by the liberal financial contribution from the members and the untiring efforts of the building commitee chairman Ln.PDG K.T.Raghunath, the Charter Members Ln.Dr.K.Karunakarn and Ln.A.J.Shah laid the foundation stone of the lions hall on 28th June 2001. A plan drawn up by Ln.Rejiv Manuel, the distinguished architect of our club.
