Athens Elks Lodge #973 Raises Drug Awareness at Kidfest!

On Saturday, April 13, 2019 the Athens Elks Lodge #973 partnered with the Athens Police Department for the annual “Kidfest” program, held in Athens, Ohio. The Elks Lodge participated with the DAP (Drug Awareness Program) efforts.  Hundreds of families with children attended the event. The Elks impaired goggles (attempting to stack cups and walk in a straight line) were a huge hit with the children, and even the adults!
