Roxboro Elks Lodge #2005 kicked off its annual National Youth Week from May 1st – 7th. Roxboro City Councilmen Sandy Stigall and Reggie Horton presented his signed proclamation on behalf of the City of Roxboro and County Commissioner Kyle Puryear presented a proclamation on behalf of the County. Afterwards, Councilmen Stigall and Horton gave a keynote speech to the Elks in attendance on the importance on being involved with the youth in our community.
The Roxboro Lodge has partnered with Person County Parks and Recreation this year to give kids an opportunity to participate in outdoor recreation activities. These activities give another recreational perspective from athletics or arts programming and can lead to an appreciation and respect for the natural world.
