From July 26 through Aug. 9, Holiday Isles Elks Lodge #1912 held Christmas in July with a collection drive for veterans, which netted over $6,000 worth of supplies. On Aug. 11, members delivered a truckload full of hygiene items, food and new clothing to the Bay Pines VA Volunteer Service Center to be given to veterans in need at no charge.
Pictured at the delivery are VA center volunteers Shanel Kelly and Bryson Boulay and members Frank and Shirly Bingham.
