THE MOOSE CALL August 2017

Greetings, Brothers and co-workers. As most

of you know there have been changes at our

Lodge. I am now the administrator and I will

be in charge of the bills, banking and all

forms and reports to Moose International.

Brother Al Mackay is governor for the 2017-

18 Moose year. He is also the social quarters

manager and will look after all bookings, the

bar stock and other duties involving the social quarters.

This is a big step for the Lodge and we ask for your sup-

port and patience to make this work.

Please come out to the regular membership gatherings

on the second Tuesday of every month to express your

ideas to make this Lodge one of Ontario’s best. By the

way, thanks to all the volunteers who have worked on the

flower beds at the front of the Lodge recently. Your ef-

forts are much appreciated.
