NEWSLETTER ON LINE
Effective January 1, 2010 we went on line with our newsletter. Our newsletter will be online and available to all members who have a computer and have access to the internet. This will also allow our “snowbird” members to continue to be able to read the newsletter and know what is going on here at the lodge even after they have returned to their summer homes. By posting our newsletter on line, we will be able to save about $2000.00 per year in printing and mailing costs. This is a significant savings and we give thanks to Moose International for providing us with the ways and means to be able to do this. We understand that not everyone has access to the internet, so we will continue to print a limited number of newsletters and then depending on the number, will mail those few that do not have internet access or make them available here at the lodge to be picked up by the members.

Our address online is: http://lodge874.moosepages.org/. All members need to go into this website and then mark it as your “favorite places”. All members who do not have access to the internet need to fill out the following form and mail it to the lodge or drop it by the Administrators office. Please do this as soon as possible as we would like to discontinue our printed newsletter by the May/June issue. Do not call, please. Fill out the form and turn it in. Thank you.
We do not have access to the internet. Please continue to mail the newsletter to us at:

Help Mooseheart School win $500,000!!!
A Few Mouse Clicks Mean $500,000 to Mooseheart School ... or Not.

If, by just clicking a computer mouse a few times over five to ten minutes, you could send a HALF-MILLION DOLLARS to help Mooseheart's kids, you'd do it -- wouldn't you?

We sure hope so.

Thanks to Kohl's department stores, that's the opportunity we Moose members have!

Between now and Friday evening, September 3, by just "voting" for Mooseheart School as your "favorite school" on the "Kohl's Cares" page on Facebook, we Moose members can get that $500,000 from Kohl's Cares Foundation for Mooseheart School!

That's $500,000 we then WON'T need to ask from the men and women of the Moose to help operate Mooseheart's school this year!

If you have a Facebook account (easy to set up), if you're 13 or older, and you're a U.S. resident -- just go to http://apps.facebook.com/KohlsCares, follow the directions to vote the maximum allowed FIVE (5) times for Mooseheart School -- and that's all there is to it!

Please ask your spouse, your family and all your friends to do the same!

If Mooseheart School finishes among the top 20 schools in nationwide voting, we'll receive a Kohl's Cares check, payable to Mooseheart School, in the amount of $500,000!

It costs you $0 -- just a few minutes of your time! What an easy way to fulfill our membership obligation to "support Mooseheart with my energy and substance"!

PLEASE don't let this opportunity pass us by! Your Mooseheart students need you to vote, NOW!

Warm fraternal regards,
William B. Airey (Director General) and Scott Hart (Executive Director)

from the Administrator...........

Summer is almost over and we anticipate the return of our snowbirds. We are trying to have a full calendar of activities for everyone.

New member applications have been slow. Now is the time to sign up your friends, relatives and associates as Golden Triangle has waived the $20.00 application fee. We have also not raised our dues to cover the extra amount that Moose International is taking from each members dues. We are one of the few lodges where the yearly membership is still $45.00.

Our quota on new applications for the year is 118, and we still have about 100 to go. Moose International has a program going on now that can keep you from ever paying dues again. Members can simply sponsor and enroll two members and your dues for one year will be awarded to you. This is scheduled to be an ongoing program and if you sign and enroll two members every year, your dues will be taken care of.

Our FBMA State Convention will be at the Quorum (now Wyndham) and Doubletree Hotels. Dates are Oct. 21-24. If anyone wishes to attend, the lodge will pay for your registration. Meals and room will be your responsibility. Highlights of the Convention will be the Fellowship Conferral Breakfast and the election of new FBMA Officers. By virtue of the number of members, we have 15 votes available at the election. There will also be Ritual Competition as the Lodge Enrollment Ceremony will again be contested.
