Elks make donation

 

April 14, 2022

For the last several weeks, Lewis County Elks Riders have been hard at work organizing a fundraiser for the National Elks Riders Brain Injury Ride.

Little miss Parklynn Whitehead and her family were selected from the community as the beneficiary for the fundraising. Parklynn is the little sister of Bexley and daughter of Brandon and Layla Whitehead.

The Elks and their guests started out at 10:00 a.m. Saturday morning, making stops at the Columbia, Lewisburg, Pulaski and Lawrenceburg lodges where they were treated to meals, snacks and refreshments and collecting donations and raising money along the way.

It was bitter cold for the riders but warm hearts were plentiful. At 7:00 p.m. the riders gathered back at the lodge and were honored by a visit from Parklynn and her family.

At that time, the Elks had raised $6000 to help this family and the donations continued to come in during the course of the evening.
