Lake Okeechobee Lodge used their Elks National Foundation Promise Grant and Anniversary Grant to host their first Halloween extravaganza. Partnering with other nonprofits, local businesses, first responders and the county commissioners, they hosted 2,238 people at the Agri-Civic Center on Halloween night! There were costume contests, a photo booth, games to play, a hay ride and of course candy! The families enjoyed a safe, fun atmosphere complete with a haunted walk.
