The shoreline is a little safer and a little healthier thanks to James Madden of Old Saybrook. James is chairman of Westbrook Elks Drug Awareness Committee and has spent many hours working with his committee to get drug awareness out to all area schools. Through the Drug Awareness Committee, James helped share resources from the Elks’ national anti-drug program and helped lead successful student essay, poster, and video contests. He’s also active with the Elks’ effort to support veterans.
