I had a wonderful time representing Beaverton Elks Lodge No. 1989 at the National Convention in Chicago. Chicago had so many things to offer, pizza at Lou’s, the Navy Pier, the Bean, the Lincoln Park Zoo, night river cruise, and of course the Elks National Memorial. (a truly spectacular building). The Convention was awesome. Being able to see our new Grands installed and being with so many who believe in God and Country was an experience.

It was a great opportunity to meet fellow Elks from across the country and return with an even deeper commitment to Elkdom and what we stand for.

August is shaping up to be another busy month as we honor our B.E.L.L.E.S with a Shrimp Fest and enjoy many other activities together.

Our Lodge depends on volunteers to make these events successful. If you’d like to help but aren’t sure where to volunteer, just ask any officer. We’d be happy to help you find a place where you can make a difference. I am always proud of our Lodge and its members who volunteer, a little or a lot, its noticed.
