On Oct. 22, members from Sarasota South Elks Lodge #2495 met students from Robert E. Willis Elementary School as they entered the school and provided them with 800 Drug Awareness packets filled with coloring books, crayons, Drug Awareness bookmarks and Red Ribbons. Teachers and parents were excited to see Elroy the Elk (member Colin Murphy) and Elroy received many hugs and high fives!
