Thurmont Lions Club’s Sandwich Sales

The Thurmont Lions Club’s sandwich sales are back! The Thurmont Lions Club began its sandwich sales 24 years ago. The first two years were conducted out of the Lions Club trailer, next to Bell Hill Farm fruit stand. Beginning with the third year, the owner of Bell Hill retired, and the club was allowed to use the building for the sandwich sales.

Sales have grown continually through the years due to the generous portions and low prices. The club now typically sells 500-600 sandwiches at each sale. New Midway Volunteer Fire Department provides the cole slaw, and the club works hand-in-hand with Boy Scout Troop 270 to run the sales. Returning customers come from far and wide, including all the way from central Virginia to central Pennsylvania. All profits from sandwich sales support the Thurmont community in multiple ways for those in need.

The Lions meet at St. John’s Lutheran Church in the lower level every second and fourth Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. Come join them for this season’s first sandwich sale at Bell Hill Farm on April 25, 1.5 miles north of Thurmont (on the west side of Rt. 15), from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., or until they sell out, whichever comes first.
