2020 Charity Ball HUGE SUCCESS....Our annual Charity Ball (benefitting Elks charities) was held Saturday, February 15th.  Thanks to the generous contributors to our Live Auction and the excellent auctioneering skills of Aaron Nelson we raised over $8,000 for our charities!  Over 100 Elks attened this annual event and spirited bidding by Daryl Nelson and others helped push us over the top to our most successful event ever!  Leading Knight Lynn Youngs, PER, the organizer, Deb Clarke, Lodge Secretary, and their staff put on a magnificent event.  THANKS TO ALL WHO ATTENDED AND SUPPORTED OUR CHARITIES.

 Volleyball picking up steam!...Volleyball leagues are now in full swing.  Play will be most evenings and weekends.  Aside from increased food and beverage sales, we're also seeing a number of volleyball players submitting applications to join our Order.  Please welcome these young people and make them feel they CAN be an Elk.  Our future is with the young! 

In addition to league play, our volleyball organizer will also host various tournaments.  For complete information on leagues, tournaments, etc. please visit www.funkvolley.com.  We're under the "Elks Island" location.

Please note that play may continue evenings until 10:30 pm and on Saturdays even later.  We do not expect any noise issues, but if you are concerned, please direct your concerns to the Lodge Secretary or to one of the Trustees.

Check out the pictures of our new courts....click here for the pictures.

Balloting for officers will be at the February 17th meeting.  All four officer positions will be elected as well as one Trustee position. 

It's YOUR Lodge.  It's up to YOU to vote for the officers you think we do the best job of running the Lodge.  Please become familiar with the candidates and plan to attend the February 17th meeting.  The new officers will take their places at the April 6th meeting.

The gate to the RV park is now locked.  Only authorized residents of the RV park will have access to the lock code.  All RV park residents are REQUIRED to lock the gate after EACH use.

If you are caught leaving the gate unlocked, you will be asked to vacate the RV park.  We are serious.  We have had continual problems with unauthorized dumping of materials, boats, trailers, etc. on our property.  Members must understand Lodge property is not a dumping ground for stuff you don't want or can't use.  We DO NOT WANT DONATIONS OF STUFF YOU DON'T WANT ANYMORE without PRIOR approval of the Lodge Secretary or one of the Trustees.
