    We are in need of some service to our Lodge to make it more functional,inviting and comfortable. Our carpet is in need of replacing-even a good cleaning would be good for

    starters

    An overall good thorough cleaning is needed throughout the Lodge

    Even a new paint job would be nice

    Please contribute what you can to our Building Maintenance Fund. If you

    cannot send a cash donation maybe you can contribute a needed item, service

    or some of your time.

    First impressions speak wonders when visitors come into our Lodge. For this

    reason we need to stay on top of its maintenance and cleaning.

    These facilities are available to all our members and others for functions andevents.

    Let's keep up the pride in our Lodge, by keeping up with its upkeep.

    Please mail your monetary contribution to the Lodge stating that it is for the

    Building Maintenance Fund or call to make arrangements for donations of items

    or for volunteering to help with cleaning or other desired involvement.

    Every little bit of help would be very much appreciated.

    ADDITIONAL NOTE:

    We are considering closing in the dining area to make it more of a smoke free

    environment for those of you who are non smokers. The majority of members

    that come into our Lodge on a regular basis are smokers. To make the Lodgetotally smoke free, would very possibly be detrimental to our Lodge at this

    time. So we are trying to come up with a viable compromise.

    The wall would also create a better atmosphere for families and children by

    separating the dining room from the bar area.

    To accomplish this we would need supplies to build the proposed wall and to

    modify our exhaust system.

    Your input on this matter would be very much appreciated. Please call Brenda

    Sreca @ 208-316-4770 with your thoughts or suggestions.

    To send in donations for this project, please address your contribution to:

    Snake River Elks #2807, Attn: Brenda Sreca/Dining Wall Fund.

    PARTICIPATION IS THE KEY TO

    ELKDOM

    The Benevolentand Protective

    Order of Elks

    of the USA has

    joined forces with Donate Life

    America to increase donations of

    organs, eyes and life-saving tissue.

    The need is paramount.

    More than 110,000 patients were

    waiting for organ transplants as of

    March 2011, according to the Donate

    life America Web site,

    www.donatelife.net.

    Only 28,663 organ transplants had

    been performed in 2010, and even

    fewer - 14,502 - organ donations had

    been made in that year.

    We Elks Members can help close the

    gap! The effort of Lodges to promote

    the program through their Bulletins

    and Web site can gain them five

    points in their quests to be named an

    All American Lodge. More incentives

    will be announced in coming years as

    the program takes shape throughout

    Elkdom.

    For more information on the

    importance of donation and how to

    become a registered donor in your

    state, go to the Donate LifeSM web-

    site, or by logging onto

    www.donatelife.net. This is a great

    way to show that "Elks Give from the

    Heart."

    In February we held elections of Officers. I decided to give it one more year as Exalted Ruler.So far all chairs except Lecturing Knight have been filled.

    Our current Secretary, Maria Yurkevicius has decided to not seek re-election. I for one will

    miss her greatly. She has been so much help to me as Exalted Ruler. Her many years of faithful

    service is much appreciated. I am sure Brenda Sreca will do you a great job - as well as the

    other men and women who stepped forward to fill the chairs.

    Thanks to Marvin Chamberlin, Dean Carnell and Gail Quinn who have filled Chairs the past

    year.

    This past year has taught me many things. I'm looking forward to the next year . I truly feel that

    most of the serious problems at the Lodge have been put to bed and that the light at the end

    of the tunnel is getting brighter. Again, Thanks to all the members who supported me last yearand hope for your continued support this coming year.

    From the Secretary's DeskMembers All,

    As of this month dues notices have been sent out to all members. Dues are due April 1st.

    Members who have not paid their dues can still pay them and be current. You have been sent

    your notices and if you do not pay, you will be dropped from rolls on March 18th.

    As of April 1st I will no longer be Secretary of the Lodge. Brenda Sreca will be taking over my

    ob. I have enjoyed doing the job but it is time to give it up. I have been at it too long.

    Someone younger than me needs to take over.

    have enjoyed all the years I spent working with Bill before he passed away and also after

    when I joined the Lodge and became Secretary. I will stay on as a member. Thank you ever so

    much for putting up with me all these years.

    Fraternally yours, Maria H. Yurkevicius - Secretary
