Chillicothe Lodge #52 Brings Holidays Dinners to Veterans

The holiday season has been incredibly different this year and many traditions have succumbed to the COIVD 19 pandemic. Chillicothe Elks Lodge #52 would normally be wrapping up our annual Veterans Christmas dinner/party, but this year the holiday was celebrated a little differently! Instead of bringing our veterans to the lodge for a Christmas party/dinner, we took the festivities straight to them! We were able to provide Christmas dinners to 7 veteran groups homes, a total of 60 veterans. They were also gifted with stocking stuffers! We would like to thank the other lodges that donated to this yearly event and would also like to thank all the volunteers who helped make this possible. A special thanks to our Loyal Knight Seth Kellenberger for chairing the event. Even though the annual celebration is a highlight of many of our veterans, we hope we were still able to spread some holiday cheer! Merry Christmas!
