2469 easter

On March 28, Jupiter Lodge hosted an drive-thru event with the Easter Bunny to practice social distancing due to the pandemic instead of hosting their traditional Breakfast with the Bunny. However, the kids loved it just the same. Seeing the Easter Bunny brought smiles to their faces and each child received an Elks goody bag filled with information on the Florida Elks Youth Camp, Therapy Services, scholarships, candy-filled eggs, and Easter coloring pages and games. 

 

2469 move

Jupiter Elks Lodge #2469 partnered with nonprofit organization Choice to Change and hosted a "Let’s Move to Be Drug-Free" food distribution event at local high school Riviera Beach Preparatory & Achievement Academy March 27. They handed out drug awareness and prevention brochures and goodies to all who attended and community service hours were given for the students that are required for graduation. The event was made possible through the Elks National Foundation Beacon Grant. Pictured is Rita Livingston, Esteemed Loyal Knight, with volunteers.
