Congratulations to our newly initiated members, Sister Michelle Washington and Brother Timothy Strong at our 18 July Lodge meeting.
CANDIDATE FOR INDOCTRINATION and INITIATION is scheduled for our 15 August Lodge meeting - Mr. Michael F. Korns proposed by Bro. Doyle Stout.
DUES 2007-2008 - The timely payment of your Annual dues helps with the operation of Lodge and Club. As of now one quarter of our fiscal year has passed and we still have three quarters to go. At this point, we have 18 Regular members who have not paid USD208 and 2 Life Members, the annual USD8 per capita.
The next Status Report of our membership is fast approaching and if those who are currently delinquent do not act favorably, you will be reported as such to the Grand Lodge in that periodic Membership Report.
“In the past we have been lenient in not posting this adverse info, but if we have to embarrass someone by posting thus to facilitate the immediate settlement of their obligation, we will do that in the future”. Thus, a word to the wise should be sufficient and we look forward to the prompt/favorable action of all concerned.
COMING EVENTS:
July 26, Thursday (6PM – 8PM) - Elks Membership/Fellowship Cocktail Nite - Please support our Membership Drive, invite a prospective member! Our Lodge success lies in your hands! Complimentary food and drinks will be served as our way of showing your guests the best of the Elks club in a very informal atmosphere. You may be the lucky winner of our weekly cash prize raffle or other prizes. See you there!
Fraternally yours,
