ACTIVITIES. We serve as hostesses at several Civic Events such as the annual Route 66 Parade VIP Breakfast, Mayors Prayer Breakfast, Taste of Duarte, and Teen Movie events. We assist at various activities in connection with the Duarte Senior Center such as monthly Bunco and Fruit for Seniors. We assist Foothill Unity Center with their annual Back-to-School event and Christmas Angel donation. We assist the Duarte Historical Museum by serving as docents. We give annual scholarships to graduating Seniors from Duarte High School and Mt. Olive Innovation & Technology High School. Funds for these scholarships are earned through various fundraising activities such as the annual Duarte Picnic Hamburger Booth, Backyard Barbecue, Yearbook Ads and numerous unique yearly events. We also do social events for fun and information.
We meet on the first Thursday of the month from October through June at 4-6 p.m. at the Elks Lodge 2436 Huntington Drive, Duarte CA 91010.
