On April 16, Jupiter Elks Lodge #2469 hosted its annual Breakfast with the Easter Bunny, with the community welcome. The event was a membership drive as well. Attendees enjoyed a breakfast buffet and the children spent one-on-one time with the Easter Bunny and took home Elks Easter arts and crafts. In attendance was wounded Army veteran Justin Callahan and his wife, Katie, and their children, residents of Jupiter Farms, Florida. His leg was amputated while serving the front lines in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom in 2003. They recently moved to the community as they were gifted a home from Homes For Our Troops.
