The Vestal Elks Lodge #2508 and Cops 4 A Cause recently partnered to hold a “Make A Difference in Your Community” contest. Youth from all schools in Broome and Tioga counties were encouraged to send in a video, essay or pictures to show what they were doing in their local community to make it a better place to live.  <\/span><\/p>\n

As an extra incentive, both organizations awarded 21 Apple iPads to those who displayed outstanding acts for their community. Forty-one are youth entered the contest. <\/p>\n

Organizers from both organizations were so impressed with all of the great work the youth are doing in their communities that they decided to award 20- $25 Walmart gift cards to those who entered but didn’t win. <\/span><\/p>\n

“It’s important to us that we recognize and reward these kids for going out of their way to try to make a positive impact in their community,” stated one of the organizers of the contest.  <\/span><\/p>\n
