July 2020

• From the Senior Regent

I am happy to report that we had another successful year and have reached our goals. Thanks everyone for their efforts in hosting and supporting our events and fundraisers. I want to give a Big Thank You to our Outgoing Senior Regent, Mary Eidson for leading the WOTM and promoting teamwork and unity within our Lodge.

As many of you may know our membership dues help fund Moose Heart and Moose Haven, along with most of our fundraisers and raffles. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, we have not been able to host many fundraisers or events over the past few months. We will be making plans in the near future to get some events and/or fundraisers started and would appreciate everyone’s continued support and contributions to help us get back on track.

As we try and get back to semi-normal, we have decided to take precautions and postpone Taco Kitchen and the Moose Rider’s Dinner. We have not decided on a date that these events will resume, however we will keep everyone posted.

Please keep an eye on the Lodge’s Facebook page, our Newsletter, or posted flyers in the Lodge for any changes and listings of upcoming events.

Lastly, I would like to recognize a few specific people:

Janell Burns as Co-Worker of the Month – Janelle is a kind woman and a joy to be around, she is always willing to help out when asked.
Gretchen Dugan – Gretchen received her Call Card for Academy of Friendship
Virginia Riley - Virginia received her Call Card for her Red Stole
Heather Pennell – Heather is maintaining her position on the Board of Officers
Shirlene Oliver – Shirlene is maintaining her position on the Board of Officers
Debbie Moore – Debbie will be joining us as the incoming Junior Regent.

Congratulations to all of you. Your efforts and hard work is appreciated.

Again, Thank You All

Crystal Wolfe
