Shenandoah Lodge supports “Blue Line Across Shenandoah”

The Shenandoah Elks Lodge #1122 is teaming up with Doug Meyer Chevrolet and Miller Building Supply to help Shenandoah residents show support for our local Police Department. Residents can call Doug Meyer Chevrolet at: 712-246-1014 to register. Following registration then members of the Shenandoah Elks Lodge will come out to your residence/business and apply the “Thin Blue Line” on your curb. The paint is fluorescent, which will shine when illuminated by headlights, and is supplied by Miller Building Supply.
