Carson City No. 2177 Elks volunteers, under the direction of Wayne Willson, Veteran’s chair, who came out on Dec. 9, a snowy morning, to assist in assembling goodie bags for the Veterans at the VA Hospital in Reno. Marci Deerfield, our Leading Knight, spent hours shopping for items the veterans would enjoy.

Funds for this was out of the lodge’s VA charity funds. 20 volunteers assembled 70 goody bags for distribution in less than 2 hours.
