Elks Promote Drug Awareness at Laguna Hills Mall

Last Saturday, Elks members reminded shoppers of drug dangers.

The Mission Viejo/Saddleback Valley Elks Lodge was out in force at the Laguna Hills mall last Saturday promoting drug awareness.

Drug Awareness Chairman Steve Rusie and his volunteers passed out American flags and pamphlets to mall shoppers.

Rusie said he was happy with the warm response from youngsters and parents as he greeted them with a smile, an American Flag and drug awareness literature. Assisting him at the mall were Elks Lodge President Gloria LeCouvre and Elk of the Month Vince Renga.
