Athen Elks #973 Supoprt Local Stand Down Event

Written By Richard Threadgill

Athens Elks Lodge #973 donated over $2,000 worth of boots, coats, sweatshirts, hats, and gloves for the Athens Stand Down event. Stand down is a military term for taking a break from being on the battlefield.

 This money was made available through an Elks National Foundation (ENF) Spotlight Grant. Elk members volunteered to shop for the items, pack backpacks and handout items for the event.
