South Plainfield Elks Lodge #2298 Brings Books and Dictionaries to Third Graders Across Local Schools





By Christine Sauer


SOUTH PLAINFIELD, NJ – Members of the South Plainfield Elks Lodge #2298 visited local schools during the week of April 26, 2026, as part of two educational outreach efforts. The Reading Initiative Project, led by Bill Seesselberg, and the Dictionary Project, coordinated by Debbie Czech, brought valuable resources to third-grade students across the district.











Each student received a copy of the book Third Grade Angels along with a personal dictionary. The program reached students at Roosevelt, Kennedy, Riley, Franklin, and Holy Savior Academy.
