It is with a sad heart that the Richmond Lions Club has to anounce the end of the line for the Sockey Run.
After more than thirty years of offering this crowd pleaser we find ourselves without the manpower to continue putting on this event.

Christmas Trees
For more than 35 years the Vancouver South Lions Club has sold Christmas trees. These days the trees are sold at the John Oliver high school on the corner of 41st Ave and Fraser St in Vancouver.
