“As this emblem is first in our hearts as loyal Americans, so it is close to our altar as loyal Elks”
May 2016
Well, it's May already.
Lots of things are happening this month at the lodge: we have
the Mothers” Day celebration, The Flea market this month to raise
money for the Vets. Also our Wednesday night crab night is starting.
Wow, so many things to mention! Please read the bulletin. As
usual, the Lodge is doing great but as always we could use a few
more new members. If you know of anyone you would like to sponsor
please do. It would be nice to have more members at our meetings
and of course we could use more volunteers.
Let's all remember schools are getting out and our children
will be playing outdoors so let’s be careful while we are driving. And
again lets’ never forget our Veterans.
God Bless, Fraternally
Michael Greaver
Exalted Ruler
