Toni Ferrara named Elk of the Year

The Elks year runs from April to April...

Toni Ferrara was named Elk of the Year for 2017-2018 at an honorary dinner held Friday night, 3/23/2018.

This honor was given for her unflagging willingness to do whatever needed to be done and always doing it with a smile.

The Culver City Elks bestows scholarships to high school seniors and Toni was there helping grade the essays and rank the entrants.

When the Elks held their Mother's Day brunch, their Cinco de Mayo party, and their Halloween Party, Toni was there for the setup, serving and the break down as well.
When the Culver City Elks threw a Christmas party for under-served kids in the area and Toni was amazing in the development and execution of an "arts and crafts" day that the kids thoroughly enjoyed.

The Elks had information tables at three public functions this year; the Mar Vista Farmer's Market, Fiesta la Ballona, and the National Night Out sponsored by the Culver City Police Department. Toni was there at each event with a smile and warm handshake for those seeking information.
