Well it’s not completely true. My tenure as your Governor has come to an end but I will still be here helping out where ever I can. It was a lot of fun being your Governor and we accomplished a lot of good things for the lodge and you.
The board of officers were and are, some of the most dedicated lodge members I have worked with so far. They all will be back for another year with just a few changes in positions but they all are dedicated to seeing this through to the end.
The biggest move that we are working on is the development of the field on the north side of the lodge. If we can get it through, it will sustain our lodge for years to come. It’s a very exciting time for our lodge. We’ll keep you posted on how its progressing. One of the last hurdles we still need to make our year is membership. We are so close and we need your help. Please sign up your friends and neighbors so we can be a premier lodge. Getting there will save the lodge a lot of money by lowering our monies owed to Moose International. Plus seeing our lodge on the short list of premier lodges association wide will be great as well.
Working with the WOTM board has been a hoot as well. These ladies are working hard for all of you. Internationally we are on the verge of making some great waves association wide. This past conference the men voted to ask the WOTM to consider joining the LOOM as one on the State Association level. This is the first step in getting us all as one. Sixteen other state associations have done the same. This experiment will only be on the State level for now, but is crucial in getting up to the next level, lodges and International. We are all in this together working for the same cause, Mooseheart and Moosehaven so it makes sense in moving forward. The next five to six years will be very exciting as this hopefully moves forward. So ladies show up at your membership meetings to see how this is progressing.
Signing off for the last time as your Governor; m
