WHEREAS, Naples Elks Lodge #2010, of the Benevolent and Protective Order
of Elks, through its Constitution is a Patriotic Order; and,
WHEREAS, the Lodge promotes the ideals that the citizens of Collier County
and the nation live in freedom, won through great sacrifices and
many tribulations, which have provided the foundation for free,
prosperous and independent life; and,

freedom, otherwise, through carelessness or indifference, the
rights and liberties enjoyed may vanish; and,

who died in a field in Pennsylvania on 9/11/01 that Patriotism
Week was changed to include September 11.
