District Governor Gene Goetz (Jacquiline)
Goldsboro Downtown Lions Club
Gene and his wife Jackie retired in 2015. They decided to escape the cold winters of Wisconsin and move South. Relocating to Pikeville North Carolina they love the area and the people of North Carolina. Soon after settling in, Gene joined a Lions Club which
gave him the opportunity he has always wanted; to pay back to society the good fortune he has found in life, to Serve.
Prior to retirement Gene worked as a mechanical design engineer. Over 44 years working in many different engineering capacities he had the opportunity to design a plethora of different products. Although happy about the way his career progressed, he’s especially happy with his present position, retirement!
As a Lion Gene has met many fantastic people! His passion is working with the visually impaired at Camp Dogwood. Gene also enjoys visiting clubs to spread the word about Lions.
