This offer applies on all dine in, carry out, and delivery orders placed on Thursday February 21st.”
Leeds continues: “Havre Elks Lodge #1201 plans to utilize the funds raised on Thursday February 21st at Pizza Hut to continue assisting area youth, area veterans, and our communities as a whole.” “Our lodge area consists of all of Hill County, all of Blaine County, and Chouteau County on US-87 to the town of Big Sandy.” According to Leeds: “This is a very large geographic area and the more funds the Havre Elks Lodge can raise the more money we have to invest back into the communities our lodge serves.”
Leeds says there is one program the Elks has that the lodge is excited to reignite to help all communities in their lodge area. “Drug Abuse is a major problem across the United States and in Montana.” The Elks Drug Awareness Program is the only program in the United States endorsed by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) of the United States Government. “We have a new lodge chairperson and are really looking forward to relaunching this program to assist the communities in our lodge area with the drug abuse problems that are specific to their communities.” “If anyone would like to find out more about this program the Elks offers they are welcome to call me at 1-406-945-2524.”.
