Lions Building Map & Directions
The Venedocia Lions Building has a fire number marker (19038B) and technically the address is Main Street. However, the reality is that the building is located on an unnamed alley one street over to the east of Main Street in Venedocia.
Most online maps show the US Post Office on Main Street. The Lions Building is east of the post office and south of the ball park and playground. The Lions Building is easily accessed from the church parking lot in the center of the village.
Venedocia is centrally located between the cities of Delphos, Van Wert, and Spencerville on State Route 116.

Lions Building History
The Venedocia Lions Building was erected in late 1969 and early 1970. The original mortgage note was $9,000. The club held a mortgage burning at the 1980 steak fry. The shelter house was erected in 1992 near the playground area at a cost of $3,800. The building and grounds are used for many community events and meetings.

Lions Building & Shelter House Rental

Building & Grounds
The Venedocia Lions Building is available for rent for meetings, parties, reunions, auctions, or any event that seats less than 75 people. The building has a
kitchen and is air conditioned. The grounds include a playground, shelter house, basketball court, and ball diamond.
Water
The Lions Building tap water contains a lot of iron, with an occasional hint of sulphur. If this is not to your liking, especially for making coffee,
tea, or other water-added drink mixes; we recommend that you bring along your own supply of drinking water for your event.
Shelter House
There is no charge for the use of the shelter house. However, parties renting the Lions Building may also have reserved the use of the shelter house. Therefore,
if you are interested in using only the shelter house for a gathering, please call the rental contact to confirm that the shelter house is available before merely
showing up to find that another party already has the shelter house reserved.
Parking
There is limited parking, including handicap parking, in front of the Lions Building. Additional parking spaces are available at the ball park and
in the church parking lot south of the Lions Building.
