Centennial parade


The first LEO club was founded in 1957 by Jim Graver, the couch of the Abington High School, Pennsylvania baseball team. It grew rapidly beyond Pennsylvania in a short time as it served and touched the hearts of the youth. Currently having over 160000 members around 140 countries in the world LEO club has become the largest youth club of volunteer character in the world.
Remarking the centennial celebrations of the LEO movement a walk was organized by the Leo District 306A2. It was a lifetime opportunity for the LEOs to take part in the Centennial walk 2017. Once in 100 years the LEOs will be having the experience of a centennial walk and we were lucky enough to take part and walk with the spirit of the Leoism carrying in our hearts.
It was held on 11th March 2017 at Viharamahadevi Park with the participation of all the Leo clubs of the district. It has become the biggest walk in the history of the Lionism and Leoism of Sri Lanka.
