Happy New Year!

Yes it is a new Elk Year. Thank you for your vote of confidence. It is my hopes to see 2013-2014 is a fantastic year for Our Lodge. There has been a great pouring out of support already! Many of the committee chairpersons have agreed to continue on with their committees and projects.

You will be seeing a few new faces in the Officers Corp, and reading their letters of hopes and goals. Thank you for supporting this new team of Officers. There are a few positions still open! If you would like to join this team Please let me know. Working together is the KEY for success!

There is only a small group of Officers and a large group of Members! Members! Elks, Spouses and family members all make up a powerful Team. If there is something you are interested in, or would like to see come to pass this year please come to a House Committee Meeting. You can also write it out and put it into the Suggestion Box. They do get read! Suggestions are great, especially if a solution is included. The suggestion box is commonly thought of, mostly when there is a complaint. We would like to see it utilized as an extension of a way to express your thoughts and goals! It is always on the wall, we are not always in the building, and you might not be able to make a meeting.

On a personal note! I would like to thank you all for your prayers, visitations, and out pouring of support, during these last few months of this medically turbulent time. It has given me the courage to continue on! You are the key to all our success!

Elkdom is not a secret invite a friend to join!

Fraternally Yours, Terry Gurley
