St. Patrick's Day at The Elks Lodge

A festive time was had by everyone who celebrated St. Patrick’s Day at the lodge. Delicious food, many cheers and blessings, and lots of good company.

Spring Cleaning at The Elks Lodge

On March 3, members of the House Committee rolled up their sleeves and tackled the inside storage unit, sorting through decorations, purging unnecessary items, and organizing the remaining supplies into labeled bins. Thanks to their hard work, this storage area is now a tidier and more functional space! A huge shoutout to House Committee Chair Eric Thorsen, Entertainment Chair Patsy Weston, Member At Large Nancy Klopfenstein, and Sally Thorsen for all their hard work on this project. An extra special thank you goes out to Ron and Pam Fore who so generously donated a rolling rack, which will help keep our decorations better organized and more accessible.

Elks Read

On March 3, Exalted Ruler Jennifer Parker and Elks Read volunteer Su-san Phillips visited the Episcopal Children’s Services GCS Head Start Center to read picture books about Spring to the pre-K students. Through a Beacon Grant, each child received their own copy of Hello Spring! by Shelley Rotner, one of the featured books that day. Mem-bers interested in volunteering as part of our Elks Read literacy initia-tive should reach out to the Exalted Ruler for more information.
