Delray Beach Elks Lodge’s 37th country and western dinner dance fundraiser was the most successful thus far, raising $16,000 for the Sunny Shores Sea Camp. The camp hosts a five-day camp for children, teens and adults with cystic fibrosis accompanied by up to three of their family members. This year, these campers will be going to Melbourne, Fla.
Delray Beach Lodge maintains community visibility in a variety of ways. At Delray Beach Lodge’s annual awards dinner, awards were presented to the Police Officer of the Year, Firefighter of the Year, Ocean Rescue of the Year, Elks Officer of the Year, Elk of the Year and Citizen of the Year. The lodge also participated once again in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Additionally, the lodge donated $1,000 to the Miracle League, $1,000 to the Sandoway Discovery Center and $500 to AVDA (Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse).
