This years Dictionary Project is a great example of how the lodge uses “ Time, Treasure, Talent and Team Work” to complete a great program. Our lodge Dictionary Project Chairman Al Montano used all of four of these. The Time was for stamping, inserting a Drug Awareness Bookmark and delivering the dictionary’s. To purchase the Dictionaries, the Treasure came from Elks National Foundation and a $2,000 Gratitude Grant and donations of our members for the purchase of the dictionaries. The Talent involved the stamping and delivery of the Dictionaries. Pulling off the project involved Teamwork of the Orange Unified School District, our members and students from Villa Park High School. The Orange Elks Third Grade Dictionary Program is designed to place a personal dictionary in the hands of every third grader in the city of Orange. The dictionary becomes the students very own, to carry with them as they advance through their school years. In fourteen years we have delivered over thirty thousand dictionaries to every third graders in the city of Orange. This year we delivered over two thousand two hundred dictionaries to twenty seven schools and seventy six classrooms. The Hotel Kids were also included. Our Drug Awareness Education Program provided a Drug Awareness book mark for each dictionary.
