We represent the largest number of Lions Clubs and members in Multiple District 5M. This area has an agriculturally light manufacturing driven economy mixed with an increasingly industrial base in the St. Cloud and surrounding area. There is a wealth of recreational opportunities that include numerous beautiful lakes and scenic rivers, as well as a large number of hiking and bicycling trails.

District 5M8 is a district of “Harmony" and is truly proud of its clubs, members and its dedication to Lionism. The "We Serve" motto exemplifies the many projects and fund-raisers that are carried out by the Lions and Lioness of 5M8.
