“ROXBORO ELKS REACH OUT TO OVER 10,000 PATRONS IN DRUG AWARENESS CAMPAIGN DURING PERSONALITY FESTIVAL”

 

By: Derrick Sims

The Roxboro Elks Lodge #2005 partnered with the Roxboro Area Chamber of Commerce for the 40th Annual Personality Festival in Person County on August 25-26th. The Personality Festival is a two-day festival that attracts 10,000-plus visitors to Roxboro every August. The Roxboro Lodge continued its Drug Awareness campaign by distributing awareness materials to the local residents and visitors that were in attendance. As always, there were many Roxboro Elks on hand that volunteered their time in an effort to make an impact in the community.

In addition to the campaign, Elroy the Elk made several appearances at the festival. Everyone had the opportunity to meet and take photos with Elroy at the Drug Awareness Trailer. Even with the record high temperatures, the overall campaign was a complete success.

The Roxboro Elks Lodge #2005 would like to thank NC Elks State Drug Awareness Chairman Bob Miller for his guidance and support for this project. The Roxboro Elks would also like to thank the Roxboro Area Chamber of Commerce for allotting space to accommodate the lodge’s drug awareness campaign and look forward to continuing future partnerships in an effort to make our community a better place.
