Kindergartener Brandon Patterson enjoys eating breakfast at Elden Elementary School with his father Mike Cooper. Elden held its Fourth Annual Dunkin’ Donuts for Dudes, a celebration of male role models, on April 28. Dads and other males important to Elden students were invited to enjoy a beverage and a donut with their children before school began. Demonstrating true community spirit, the Dunkin’ Donuts franchise in Baldwinsville donated all of the donuts and coffee needed for the event, and the Quaker Steak & Lube restaurant donated two $25 gift cards that were raffled off to attendees. Elden holds the celebration each year to encourage dads and other male role models to actively participate in their children’s lives, particularly in the school setting.
