NEWS:

Hartford Distributor Inc. Benefit Held

By Lisa Berthiaume PER

A pasta fund raiser was held Thursday, August 26 hosted by the Manchester Lodge to benefit the victims of the August 3 shooting tragedy at Hartford Distributor's Inc. located in Manchester, CT.  Nearly 600 people were in attendance that evening and raised over $13,000 – and the donations are still coming in.  We would like to thank the individuals, the Town of Manchester and over 80 businesses  who contributed food, services and prizes.   There were 45 Elk volunteers and approximately 35 non-Elk volunteers including representatives from the Teamsters Local #1035, Chartwells-School Dining Service, Scot Haney and Teresa LaBarbera from WFSB, Emblem Club #251, Mayor Louis Spadaccini and Deputy Mayor Leo Diana, and friends and co-workers from Hartford Distributors.  A 'tip of the antlers' goes out to Linda Sherman, Lodge Permittee, who spearheaded the event.  We enjoyed the company and support of visiting Elks from Hamden, New Britain, Willimantic, Wallingford, Windsor and Wethersfield/Rocky Hill.  Check out this video report from NBC Connecticut News featuring Phil Stender PER.

Manchester CT Lodge Holds “Goofy Golf” Tournament

On June 19, Manchester CT Lodge No. 1893 held a “Goofy Golf” tournament sponsored by the veterans committee of the lodge.  The event raised $500 and benefits local veterans; specifically transitional veterans housed at the Michael J. Dinda House located in Manchester, CT.  With 45 golfers, including two residents from the Dinda House, players were able to tee off with a baseball bat, drive down the fairway with a tennis racket and sink a putt with a pool cue and croquet mallet!  Some players even dressed goofy to play; we had a ballerina, Hawaiian dancer, and a very dapper looking gentleman dressed in old fashioned golf gear – complete with knickers!
