Exalted Ruler Dan Keicher
Thanksgiving! What a great time of the year: family and football! Time to thank others for what you are thankful for. I’m thankful for our Lodge; their caring, loving hearts’ and their willingness to go the extra mile when they see a need.
The Memorial Garden is well over half installed and should be completed shortly. Thank you for all that participated in this worthy project. I also want to recognize the Sunset Chapter of the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Club. They were instrumental in the project to bring our property closer into compliance with Clean Water Services.
Also, their non profit organization, the Sergeant Watts Veterans Foundation, awarded us a grant again this year enabling our Lodge to celebrate our Veterans in the community by providing them with a complimentary Prime Rib Dinner, and a program thanking them for their service. Please come on November 10 and celebrate with us.
We will not be having a civil war party this year, but our Lecturing Knight, Brandon Stokes plans a Day after Thanksgiving Poker Night! Head down and play a few rounds! And on Thanksgiving Day, the tradition continues with our Elks family Thanksgiving dinner. Please see the information in this month’s Elkhorn.
Remember: Ever Practice Brotherly Love, Be Just to Your Fellowman, Be Charitable to ALL Mankind, And Always an Elk! Even when it’s hard, especially when it’s hard.
