"I have been a member for a few years now. I have never had issues. Volunteer in kitchen etc. . Today I came in for Matini night and was so disappointed. I came in at 5 after working all day had not eaten and wanted to order a pretzel to help pat my stomach as I drank. There were comments made by older members that if I ate what was brought for martini night and I wouldn't have to order anything. I think that was uncalled for. I am putting money into the elks and should not have to hear comments made if you want to order food."

— Lavinia Collazo
