"Newport Elks Tournament". Why don't you read of this in the Elks Magazine? A baseball tournament for high schools that has been going on for 30+ years! Over 50 high schools in S CA. Wow! That's impressive.
That's quite an accomplishment this Lodge has been accomplishing for 55 years with this gridiron committee. Great program too that acknowledges sports celebrities. A tip of the Antlers!
This lodge was given the bowling equipment by a private operator who went out of business. It would be cool if they could find a way to make it work in their lodge. I wish our lodge had room for a bowling center. That's lots of fun.
good job and excellent public relations. However, the elks are a fraternal organization. Not a civic one. Community service work grows out of the bonds forged by the fireside of the Elks home. Not the other way around. Subtle but huge distinction
