Benevolence with a Buzz: Pink Drank 2025 and the Importance of the Elk's Lodge to our Community

Get ready to dive deep with one of the Elks Lodge’s most dedicated leaders, Nancy Lewelling, as she joins Adam Montiel to talk about Pink Drank, a vibrant summer event that’s become one of San Luis Obispo’s most anticipated gatherings. Poolside, dressed in pink, with over 30 of the hottest producers in wine, beer, spirits, and craft cocktails. Add in a live DJ, curated bites, a grazing table, a wine pull, and you've got a celebration that’s as playful as it is purposeful.

Nancy shares what makes this event so uniquely Central Coast, how Elks Lodge 322 continues to serve the community in creative and meaningful ways, and why this isn’t just a party; it’s a purpose-driven celebration benefiting Woods Humane Society and the Elks National Foundation.

We also talk about what it really means to be an Elk today, how the organization has evolved, and why this 130-year-old institution is seeing a new wave of energized members stepping up to serve, support, and build community.
