Letter: Elks help serve at Bread & Broth

To the community,

Bread & Broth’s dinner serving at St. Theresa Church’s Grace Hall on March 24 was sponsored by the Tahoe/Douglas Elks Lodge No. 2670.

The Elks Lodge Adopt A Day donation of $250 made it possible for B&B to serve a hot, nutritious meal to over 85 guests, provide seconds for those still hungry and give out “take home” servings to be enjoyed by those unable to attend or as a “second” dinner.

Donating their time and great spirit at the dinner were Elks Lodge members Dan Wells, Gary and Toni Wendt, Roger and Jeanne Barragan, Gail Bryan and Jim Plameng. They were a very personable group, speaking with each guest and very genuine in their interactions.

“This is a great way for the Elks Lodge to get hands on and serve the community,” said Roger Barragan. “We love helping those around us.”

Elks organizations invest in communities and meet local need where their members live and work. The Tahoe/Douglas Elks Lodge No. 2670 is a very active and community involved group and Bread & Broth is very fortunate to have them as a sponsor and join our hard working, all volunteer program members in feeding the less fortunate of our community.
