PERMIT NO. 239 Vol. 123 No. 12 PUBLISHED MONTHLY March 2010 Dear Members, It seems like just a few short months ago I was writing my first Call letter, and now I am writing my last. I would like to thank all of our Lodge offi- cers, trustees and members for helping to bring our Lodge back to the stature we are known for. I would like to congratulate the newly elected officers for the upcoming year. I am very confident that they will have an outstanding year in office. I am sure everyone in this great lodge will support them as I was supported. I would like to invite all Elks to attend the 2010- 2011 Installation of Officers scheduled for Saturday March 27, 2010. The evening will begin at 5:30 pm with the Installation Ceremony with Dinner to follow. Lastly, from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank everyone in Glens Falls Lodge #81, without you there would be no Lodge, and thank you for giving me one of the best years of my life. Whoever said there were no challenges in retirement should become the ER of an Elks Lodge.
