The Burien Elks Lodge participated in dispensing student dictionaries to third graders in the Highline School District the past few weeks as part of Dictionary Project of Charleston, S.C.

More than 700 books will be donated to elementary schools from Southern Heights to White Center Heights and many in between. At more than 500 pages, the books are a handy size and easy to use.

Next year the Elks plan to include more elementary schools in the district as part of their benevolent educational activity. You can visit the website for the dictionary project at www.dictionaryproject.org
