Each year, the Oregon State Elks Association sponsors a children’s poster contest, allowing them to illustrate the importance of eye health and safety for themselves and the world to see.

Everyone who participated should be proud of the role they played in preventing eye injuries. Thanks to all Oregon Elks districts for their involvement.
