G reetings Members All, Just a brief note thank- ing everyone for a fan- tastic May. Our Mothers day brunch was a resounding suc- cess. We fed about 150 people and had a great time. May also gave us Memorial Day, and a trip to the Elks State Meeting. In June its all about Flag day; every Lodge observes June 14th as Flag Day, a tradition which the Elks began in 1907 and was later adopted by the Congress as an official observance. We will perform a ceremony at 5:30pm on the Town Square. Check the calendar for more activities, and come on in and take advantage of your private club!

• We need Volunteer Bartenders for June...BAD! Please
contact Pete or Val if you want to get trained. This is a
great way to get to know folks at the Lodge!

You pick your meal, the Lodge buys the ingredients, and you get to show off your culinary chops. Contact Val to sign up. It’s fun...we promise!

It’s Back, Baby! Fernando’s World Famous
Nacho Night is back...and with a

greenhouse to make his artisanal, hand-crafted tortilla
