Message from the Exalted Ruler

Hi Brothers and Sisters;

Wow! Four new members have signed up and are ready to be initiated. Our membership drive is in full effect and we are trudging forward to get more. We are sorry to see Sue Cooper resign from the Lodge and we wish her the best.
The fish fry was a huge success and was sold out in no time. I personally would like to thank Roger Bladow, Guy Gilmore and Rich Wyatt. The Easter egg hunt held at Harold and Barbara Hood’s was very inviting to those whom attend and we would like to thank them as well. P.E.R.S hamburger night had an astonishing turn out and of course the burgers were excellent. Penny and Javier Gallosa had an enchilada dinner and it was a hot one! The enchilada dinner benefited CP and as well had a great outcome. Thanks guys!
Javier and Penny would like to have a few dinners in June and July to help fund the purchase of a couple of new LCD TV’s for the lodge as the old ones are in dire need of replacement. So be on the lookout for those dates to be scheduled. Youth week is upon us and we will be hosting several groups of youth to promote our youth week activities. Youth week starts the 1st of May.
I would like to wish Marleen Kent and Jo Ann Snell luck on the upcoming scheduled yard sale. They would appreciate your support and donations to the yard sale. Look around you and anything that may be beneficial to the yard sale would be appreciated.
The karaoke Friday nights have been bumping and we have had many members and guest come out and support it. Please continue to do so. Another “hot” item at the lodge is the pull tabs! We have seen many payouts and happy customers so keep playing but remember to play responsibly!
A big thanks to Javier and Danny for getting the air conditioners up and running. This summer is going to be a hot one and we give thanks for fresh cool air!
We have a new member to be, her name is Yvonne Perales. Yvonne is ready to come in running with gloves on and prepared to help wherever needed. Thank you Yvonne, proud of you! I am certain that along with Yvonne the new members will be just as willing to help out. Elks, remember our mission and commitment as everything we do is for our kids and veterans.
As you can see there are many positive vibes roaming around in the lodge and we hope to continue with them. Positive attitudes and a positive outlook provide positive outcomes! Keep up the great work and my sincere appreciation to all those that continue to help with our endeavors!



Yours in Elkdom;
George Torres
