Manhattan Potato Festival

August 20, 2016

Elks Drug Awareness Program (Bozeman Lodge #463) ) partnered with Alcohol & Drug Services of Gallatin County and Community-Coalition On Drug Awareness for the 31^st Annual Manhattan Potato Festival to teach children and parents about the dangers of illegal drug use and prevent the abuse of legalized and prescription drugs.

During the event, parents learned about our programs and 103 kids were givien MARVEL COMIC HARD CHOICES Comic Books, Flying Disks (Message Imprint: “Fly Me…Away from Drugs!”) and 11 Inch Round Red Balloons (Message Imprint: “Drugs Don’t Fly With Me!”).

Elks believe that the youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow. With that in mind, the Elks Drug Awareness Program reaches out to youth of all ages and backgrounds.
