From The Governor

Hello all fellow Moose members. I would like to start out and wish everyone a Happy New Year. With that being said let’s talk numbers for our Lodge (men) – currently we have the following: current active members 492 – members expired 52 – members dropped 43 – and 26 new members. Our Board of Officers would encourage everyone to please help renew these people. If you know someone that is expired encourage them to renew their membership and keep signing up new members. The election of officers is coming soon. March 8. 2017 is the due date to nominate an officer. May 1 is the first day as a new officer. We are looking for people interested to help build the St Pats float for the Lodge. After the parade we will have a party at the Lodge as always. We will be having meetings in the future for the following: Moose Crawl Bus Trip, The Blessing of the Bikes, and the Music Fest. As always please watch our Facebook page for the most up to date information that is going on in our Lodge. The Lodge is getting a new juke box. This is the latest and greatest juke box. It will play any song out there. If you type in a song and artist the internet will find it and play it. We are also getting with the new juke box, new speakers to play music for our outdoor events. Lent season is coming soon. We will be open to the public for this time period. So spread the word. We want to introduce new people and future new members to our great Lodge. Thanks to all member for your fraternalism and support. Fraternally, Tom

From The Administrator

Well, here is February already which is a short month and March coming. Just think….Baseball Season is coming….Go Tigers!

Election of a new board: The year is coming to a close. Election of officers will be taking place soon. I am asking everybody to think about the new board of officers and elect the best board we can have. If you would like to run – just fill out an application and put it in the Suggestion Box. Membership: We still have a ways to go to fill our quota but it can be done. As of now we are leading our District in signing up new members but we need all of you to think about asking your friends to become a member of our great fraternal organization. My goal this year is to reach 500 members. Right now we have 492. If you know some of these men that have let their membership lapse, ask them why they are dropping their membership and maybe we can fix the problem. Fraternally, Marlin
