The local Elks Lodge is focusing on health and wellness activities for the community. They asked the state Elks Lodge organization for a grant for this purpose and received about $800. Local Elks members contacted Little Forest, Ponderosa Montessori and The Arc to learn what they would like to receive for their students. Little Forest asked for bikes and outdoor balls, Arc asked for sand toys and backpacks and Ponderosa asked for bikes and outdoor balls. The state grant allows the local Elks Lodge to fill the each of the requests. Photo by John McHale/ladailypost.com
