Fulton Lodge May Day

 In ordinary times, the Fulton Elks Lodge would be hosting our 70th annual May Day Festival and bicycle giveaway this year, but due to continuing Covid restrictions, hosting a large gathering was not possible. What May Day was always about is celebrating the youth of our community. This year, we have decided to help other local organizations who work with, teach,  encourage and enable the children of Fulton to grow and be their best in areas such as academics, sports, arts and community service. We have chosen seven organizations and are donating $200 to each.  The bicycle giveaway was always a highlight of our May Day events.  As such, we are also giving two bicycles, with helmets and locks, to each organization for two deserving youth they work with.  Pictured here are recipients from the Runions Dance Studio, which was founded 69 years ago by Ruth Runion Devendorf. Left to right are Co-owner and Instructor, Emily Pitcher; Zoey Spaulding, dance student; Jill Pitcher, co-owner and Instructor; Myla Shatraw, dance student and Silvan Johnson, Treasurer of the Elks Lodge.

Liverpool Donation

 Liverpool Elks Lodge #2348 visits Upstate Golisano Children's Hospital each year in later winter.   The members visiting take cookies, frosting and sprinkles so the kids could decorate their own cookies. They bring a gift for each child and leave gifts for those who might be coming soon.  Unfortunately, this year due to Covid we were not able to visit the hospital.  We were able to present a check for $350 specified to be used for the purchase of a non-medical item(s) for the kids to enjoy.  This money comes from the Harry Agne Toy Fund which is supported from a 50-50- drawing held at each lodge meeting.

Liverpool Lodge Easter

 Liverpool Elks Lodge #2348 recently held its annual Children’s Easter Party.  Due to Covid restrictions they held a drive-up party.  The Bunny met them at their vehicles, greeted them and handed them a bag of goodies.  Although we all miss the games, crafts and food we typically share, at least we were able to do something for our youngster.

Liverpool Lodge Work Day

 Liverpool Elks Lodge #2348 participates in the Adopt A Highway Project on County Route 370 in the town of Lysander.  After a brief covid and safety meeting volunteers from the lodge participated in their annual Earth Day Clean Up by cleaning debris from several miles of the highway near the lodge.  They were fortunate enough to have a beautiful day.
