    I wanted to shout out to our members for all their

    hard work and efforts with volunteering their time to help

    out fellow Elks and residents of Eureka and Pacific by

    help clean up Eureka after the floods. I am very proud of

    our Elks Lodge and the City of Eureka!

    Chicken Chit was held on January 30th and if you

    haven’t been to this event, you’ve never seen anything like

    it! All funds raised go to our Scholarships! A big thanks to

    Jeff and Brenda Wilsey for starting this event and to all

    those who volunteered to make it a huge success!

    February is a busy month! Our State President will

    be visiting our Lodge on Saturday the 6th from 2:00-5:00.

    Please take a moment to stop by and say hello, have a

    drink with him and tell him how great our Lodge is! The

    7th is Super Bowl Sunday at 3:30, Barb Soetebier is in

    charge again this year, kickoff is at 5:30, see enclosed flyer

    for more information. The 13th is the PER Valentine’s Day

    Community Response

    The flooding brought devastation and heartbreak to many, the new year was off to a miserable start.

    However, the response from the community has brought much needed help and hope.

    We cannot begin to thank all the first responders, local officials, residents, businesses, and organiza-

    tions who came together and wrapped their collective arms around those in need, your response has

    been overwhelming and heartwarming!

    The Eureka-Pacific Elks are happy to have been a part of the overall response and

    we are extremely proud of the heart of this community!
