The Dictionary Project is an annual event for the Las Vegas Strip Kiwanis Club. We have been giving dictionaries to the third graders at Jack Dailey Elementary School for over 5 years, and as a result of the Dictionary Project, we have adopted the school and now hold regular events with the school throughout the year.
Randy Carl, Lawrenceburg Elks Lodge # 2206, Lawrenceburg, TN
I first learned of the Dictionary Project at the Elks National Convention in Charlotte, NC five years ago. I pushed to get our Lodge involved, and we have been involved every year.
