Atascadero Elks Lodge Hosts Veterans Estrella Warbird Museum Tour
Lodge also hosted the ‘Back The Badge’ appreciation dinner

ATASCADERO — On March 18, Atascadero Elks Lodge #2733 provided breakfast and lunch for approximately 100 local veterans. Following breakfast, veterans went to the Estrella Warbird Museum in Paso Robles for a tour. The tour lasted about two hours, then they returned to the lodge for lunch and socializing with each other. All military branches were present, including veterans that served in Iraq and Afghanistan. All veterans young and old shared amazing stories about their time serving our country. This event was free to all veterans, including the admission tickets to Estrella Warbird Museum.
Congressman Jimmy Panetta presented a Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition to the Atascadero Elks Lodge #2733 for their outstanding service to the community. Congressman Panetta spoke to the veterans and thanked them for their service.
The Elks are proud to support all veterans with our motto: “So long as there are veterans, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks will never forget them.”
The Atascadero Elks Lodge thanks the Estrella Warbird Museum for Admission Tickets, Ride On for transportation, and the Elks for providing the meals.
On March 27, the Atascadero Elks Lodge #2733 hosted the “Back The Badge” Appreciation Dinner. The lodge is proud of these men and women serving and protecting us. The dinner had some exemplary first responders from the North County Sheriff’s Office, Cal Fire SLO Unit, and Templeton CHP Office.
“It was such an honor to present these officers with awards thanking them for their service,” Exalted Ruler Susan Marple said.
Past District Deputy to the Grand Exalted Ruler David Martin organized the event with the Minety’s providing a tri-tip barbecue dinner. About 100 people attended the evening along with their families.
The Elks presented plaques to these officers that were chosen by their commanders and 5th District County Supervisor Debbie Arnold also presented a certificate to these officers.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Redwings is always looking for volunteers to help us provide the highest standard of care for our horses and burros. You do not need to have any prior horse experience to volunteer at Redwings. If you would like to work with our horses, the first step is to take a Volunteer Training Class. This class covers sanctuary rules, basic safe horsemanship skills, and an introduction to some of the horses that you will be working with. After completion of the class you are welcome to come volunteer and help with the horses any time during our volunteer hours. Volunteer hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 8am to 3:30pm, and we are closed on Sundays and Mondays. Note: We do not allow volunteers to ride the horses at Redwings. There are other ways to get involved and volunteer at Redwings too. We have opportunities to help in our rose and memorial garden, volunteering in the office, helping with events and fundraising, and more. Please submit the form below to schedule a volunteer training or contact our office: info@redwingshorsesanctuary.org or (805) 237-3751.
