BPOE 830 (Fulton, NY) May Day Celebration



Fulton Elks Lodge No. 830 completed their 65th May Day Celebration. The 2016 May Day celebration was a fair to celebrate the youth of our community. After many years the May Day celebration was brought back to the Fulton War Memorial. A Drug Awareness booth was set up with brochures, coloring books and a coloring station that included posters to color with positive messages. Many community member came together to make it a success including volunteers from the city, citizens and members of the local VFW as well as numerous donations.  A local artist donated her time for face painting. Her designs were amazing. The event also included rides and a group who brought parrots to interact with the community and have pictures taken. The highlight of the festivities was the annual bike giveaway. 16 bikes total were given away to children from Preschool to sixth-grade. The local hospital provided certificates for free helmets to each winner.
