Greetings, my name is Casey Stephens and I am happy to be the Chair for the Eureka Elks #652 Veterans Committee this year. I served in the US Army from 2005-2009 when I was medically re-tired after an unforeseen combat injury in Iraq in 2009.
We have lots of plans for our Veterans Committee this year. To start, we have been working with the Eureka VA Clinic to be part of the 2nd Annual Car and Motorcycle Show. The Veterans Committee is happy to report that we will be participating in this event scheduled for June 28th, 2018 from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. If you are a Veteran and would like to be part of this car and motorcycle show please pick up an application at the Lodge. If you know any Veteran that would also be interested and that is not an Elk, what a fantastic opportunity to invite them to the event. The afternoon will be full of fun cars and motorcycles, Vet-eran Services, popcorn and ice cream. Also, this year the Veterans Committee has volunteered to put on and host a dinner for our Veterans (plus one guest) that same evening starting at 5:30. If anyone is interested in being part of the Veterans Committee, all are welcome at our Veterans Committee meetings on the first and third Wednesday of the month from 6:30-7:05 p.m. Our committee looks forward to serving the community and our Veterans this year.
