Orange Emblem Club plans greater community presence The Orange Emblem Club 418 made history, March 5, when it installed its first-ever male president among its slate of officers for 2022-23. President John Russo noted the air of “hope, joy and excitement” in the room as new officers were installed. “With new members on our board, along with established members, we will have a very successful year,” he said. Russo hopes to increase club membership, and reports that the City of Orange can expect a more active club, with new service projects and a stronger social media presence. Press Correspondent Remy Arnold, who at age 20 is the club’s youngest member, intends to bring more younger members into the group. The Orange Emblem Club sup- ports projects in literacy, drug awareness and Americanism, among others.

Orange Emblem Club officers for 2022-23 are, from left, Pam Steine, installing officer; Jackie Fanzo, past supreme president; Claudia Castillo, junior past president; Luara Lockridge, financial Secretary; Kim Raya, treasurer; John Russo, president; Carole Walters, first guard; Janice Genelle, corresponding secretary; Kim Smith, second guard; and Tim Smith, trustee.

May Parade will take to the streets A hoped-to-be annual event interrupted by the COVID pan- demic, the Orange May Parade returns to Chapman Avenue on the 7th at 10 a.m. The parade will feature horse-drawn carriages, classic cars, bands, local orga- nizations and equestrians. The May Parade returned in 2019 as a revival of the former May Fes- tival Parade that graced the city’s streets from 1933 to 1991. It originally signaled the start of the Valencia orange packing season. For information about the parade, see orangemayparade. com or contact Elizabeth Holloman at (714)269-4589 or Elizabeth@OrangeChamber.com . Elks help revive soccer camp After a two-year absence due to the pandemic, the Orange GRIP Soccer Camp, sponsored by the Orange Police and Orange Elks Lodge 1475, made a comeback during the OUSD spring break. The activity is aimed directly toward middle school kids who are at-risk for gang involvement and drug use, especially during spring break, when they may have little adult supervision. The police department's GRIP (Gang Reduction Intervention Partnership) is a program for students from 8 to 12 years old. and they are pre-selected to participate. Once in the program, the athletes make and set goals, and must show improvement to remain. The Orange Elks, who provide food for the program, served In- N-Out Burgers, chips and cookies for lunch one day, and tacos, rice, beans and cookies the next day. The Elks were happy to be out in the community again – and the students were happy to have them there. Left to right, Orange Elks J C Cortez, Mike Cash, Gary Doebereiner join OPD Chief Dan Adams and Elks Danny Salas, Bill Neessen, Terri Schatz, Pam Jones, Linda Salas and Steve Baez at the GRIP soccer program.
