News from St. Albans Lodge #1566 

St. Albans Elks Lodge #1566 held their annual Hoop Shoot at the BFA St. Albans Gym on Saturday December 7, 2013.

Elk member Mary Brouillette ran the event and reported that we had 45 students representing schools throughout the area competing in the event. A great turnout of parents, friends and volunteers made for a great afternoon.

The competition was very good with a couple of age groups having to shoot additional hoops in order to break ties.
