Lions Clubs International Code of Ethics

To show my faith in the worthiness of my vocation by industrious application to the end that I may merit a reputation for quality of service.

To seek success and to demand all fair remuneration or profit as my just due, but to accept no profit or success at the price of my own self-respect lost because of unfair advantage taken or because of questionable acts on my part.

To remember that in building up my business it is not necessary to tear down another's; to be loyal to my clients or customers and true to myself.

Whenever a doubt arises as to the right or ethics of my position or action towards others, to resolve such doubt against myself.

To hold friendship as an end and not a means. To hold that true friendship exists not on account of the service performed by one to another, but that true friendship demands nothing but accepts service in the spirit in which it is given.

Always to bear in mind my obligations as a citizen to my nation, my state, and my community, and to give them my unswerving loyalty in word, act, and deed. To give them freely of my time, labor and means.

To aid others by giving my sympathy to those in distress, my aid to the weak, and my substance to the needy.

To be Careful with my criticism and liberal with my praise; to build up and not destroy.

    King of the Mountain Race

    History of the Pomona King of the Mountain

    The Pomona King of the Mountain was a challenging mountain running race held annually in Pomona, Queensland. The race involved climbing and descending Mount Cooroora, a steep mountain that stands as a prominent landmark in the region.

    The race began in 1959 and became a significant event in the community calendar, drawing participants and spectators from around Australia. The course was approximately 4.2km long, with the mountain section being particularly challenging due to its steep terrain.

    The race traditionally took place during the Pomona King of the Mountain Festival, which evolved into a major community event featuring various activities and entertainment for all ages.
