The Dahlgren Lions Club serves King George County, Virginia. Chartered by Lions International on July 16, 1959, the Club's lead organizers were Jack Hill, a Past International Director (PID) of Lions International, and Robert A. (Bob) Walters of Dahlgren.

PID Jack Hill approached Bob in April 1958 to organize a club. Bob, being president of the Dahlgren Civic Association felt that he did not have time. In April 1959 Jack came back to Bob and they set out to organize a club. One and one-half hours later they had signed up 25 of the original 26 members who organized and became the Dahlgren Lions Club
