I Got Mine!





I got my new calendar. Might not sound that exciting to you, because you might not yet know any better.



It seems that my eldest grandson entered a drug awareness poster contest hosted by an Elks lodge in Colorado, and did so without even telling anybody.


Several months later, his mother received a telephone call from the Elks informing her that the poster my grandson created had won Second Place. My grandson was treated to a dinner, presented with a One Hundred Dollar Savings Bond, and a full page print of his poster was placed in the April Section of their 2009 Drug Awareness Calender.



Well, now that you know that, you must be as excited and proud of my grandson as I am. How about that! And congrats to the Elks Club ( a non-profit group I had never considered to support until now) for their work.
