Stuff you wanted to get rid of, white elephant gifts or just plain old junk were auctioned and $534 was raised for the “Pig”.

All though the year, Bob thinks of ways to get the members to put their spare change into a purple piggy bank. He organizes two trips a year to Laughlin, has 52 Club and a Century Club for donations, has a monthly turn in with “Lavish Prizes” as a reward and every once in a while has an auction.

The money is collected and turned in once a year at the California-Hawaii Elks Association State Convention. This year the Orange Lodge turned in over $24,000 as part of the $3,230,000 “The Piggy Bank March” collected. This money is used to provide free Physical Therapy, Speech - Language Therapy, Preschool Vision Screening, Scholarships, Grants and Occupational Therapy to children free of charge up to 18 years old.
