Exalted Ruler Letter:

Thank you all for attending our Special Meeting. The ones who were there showed that they really care about our lodge. Many good suggestions were given during the meeting and many more were received after the meeting. Bill Pumphry is a ball of fire. He is leading up the committees and things are moving along. We need volunteers to help with these projects. There are 17 ideas presented. Some are being done as soon as next month, some are dictated by weather for outdoors. But as we stated in the meeting, if you want to keep this lodge, you have to help with these projects. The first project is March 21st. It is a F.O.T.E. (friends of the Elks) party. Invite your neighbors, friends, and work friends to a dance with a DJ, and a casino night. This is open to the public. We want to fill the bingo hall. Anita will list the other ideas from the THINK TANK and PLEASE volunteer to help. We have 430 members, and only about 20 do all the work. This lodge belongs to every member, so PLEASE help.

We need your support

Jeff Fasnacht

Think Tank

After the special meeting on the 21st a “Think Tank” committee was created to assist the House Committee and Lodge Officers create ways to stimulate the Elks Economical Status. Ideas we are working on are:



March 21st have a Casino Night and FRIEND of the ELKS Party. See attached flyer for all the details. Please make plans to come out. There will be something for everyone.



We want to get some public relations going. If you have connections or ideas on ways we can get our name in the paper, radio, on signs, or websites for free please e-mail us or call us.



We want to attend more community activities that will help us gather new members. If you know any or contacts of any please e-mail or call us.



We are going to do a better job of getting the information out to you and the public on any events we are going to have.



We are interested in creating a Family Night here one a week or once a month, at the Elks. Creating a Children’s Room with supervision, so mom, dad and friends can enjoy dinner and some social time at the club without paying a sitter. Your input is greatly needed on this topic.



We are implementing a volunteer’s recognition program here at the ELKS. When you volunteer your time you will be rewarded. More information will be coming soon.



In June (on Flag Day) we are going to host a recognizing ceremony for the Sheriffs Department, Police Department and Fire Department. If you are interested in helping with this event please contact us ASAP.



We have gotten better wine in the bar, per your suggestions.



We have more ideas and plan on sharing those with you as we work out the details. Your input and participation is greatly needed.

Sign Up
