This month’s message will pretty much echo my article last month. Hopefully, you Fellows and Pilgrims will have received an invitation to join us on Friday night, March 5th for Steak Night in the rear of the Hall. This event is intended to get us all together (as many as possible) due to the fact we weren’t able to do so around the Christmas holidays. We will have a social hour beginning at 5:00 p.m. with dinner to start at 6:00 p.m. The committee will supply the Moose Milk and drinks of choice. However, please be advised that we will all pay for our own dinners. Our committee is somewhat short of funds this year just like most others are. I hope you will be understanding and join us in some fun anyway. We will pick up the tab for the drinks and the tip for the waiting staff. When you receive your invitation from Bob Guest, please RSVP so that he will know how much food to order. I look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible.

Thank you to those that helped with the ragtag breakfast on Valentine’s Day. Your help is always most appreciated.

Until next month, have fun, be careful, and God bless everyone.

You asked for it---- you got it! There will be another senior citizens luncheon for those who are 60 years of age or older. If you enjoyed the last one you are sure to enjoy this one too. The menu will consist of ham, macaroni and cheese, and lima beans, with pudding for dessert.

The date is Thursday, March 25th. The meal will be served from noon until 2:00 P.M.

In order for the lodge to be better prepared please R.S.V.P. to Jim Hudgins. I can be reached via e-mail at bigjim1655@aol.com or by phone at 895-9531.

Looking forward to seeing everyone---

Brothers,

Thanks to your efforts we are still #1 in the state and are #14 internationally! At this writing we are 12 members short of achieving our 1st membership quota of the year. I know that each of you has this someone in mind to sign up, so please take this opportunity to sign them up and help us to surpass the first quota and to help the lodge attain our annual achievement awards from the state and international level. Only twice has the lodge not been awarded the merit award since its inception and now has been renamed as the lodge achievement awards just two years ago. So please help our Governor and our lodge by continuing to sign members. Just because we reach a quota doesn't mean you stop signing members. We need as many members as we can get.

I would like to express my extreme displeasure at whoever stole our membership status board. There is no reason for you to remove it from the wall or the premises. If you have a discrepancy with the totals, then see either Bob Guest or myself and hopefully we can resolve the issue. You have now created hours of work for us to create a new board and retrace our records. Some records may have to be sent from Chicago. The board had not been updated for January yet and now we have to recreate the entire past year. Whoever removed this board should be ashamed of themselves.

Hope all of you are being safe during our snow emergencies. Please remember as you leave the lodge at night to be careful as that melting snow during the day becomes black ice at night; treacherous to walk on and even more dangerous to drive on. Don't know about you but I've had my fill of snow for the year. Come on spring so we can ride without getting crud all over the bike or sandblasted from the sand and salt!

Thanks for all you do.

God bless Mooseheart and Moosehaven,
Sam Thomas
Membership Chairman

Brothers and Co-workers,

Well it’s almost that time again for the Local Race here in Fredericksburg, so the crunch is on. We as a Committee has to thank all who have been Loyal Supporters to our endeavors with there support of our dinners and raffles. Also we have to thank Don and Ally Nails for their donation last month to us. It will be put to good use. We will be continuing doing our Steak and Shrimp on the 4th Friday of every other month, also our Shrimp and Crab Leg night on the last Wednesday of each month. We will be adding a Dinner starting the 3rd Saturday of March and it will run every month. The Dinner will be an All You Can Eat Spaghetti Dinner. It will be Eddies World Famous Spaghetti. So those of you that really enjoyed the Wednesday night Spaghetti dinners it will be the same, SO COME ON OUT!!!

Just to let you all know where the money goes we raise from our dinners and raffles, it cost us about $600.00 a year in entry fee's to just race in the Local race, when we rally it cost us right at $1000.00 a weekend if all the kids race. We run in about 5 rally races a year. Myself and the parents pay for our own hotel rooms and meals. We spend on an average of $1500.00 a year in parts. It cost us in paint when we repaint a car and letter it right at $500.00 a car. We also have to pay the up keep on the trailer and the taxes and that about $200.00 a year. That’s why we do all the dinners and raffles at the lodge that we do; it all goes for the kids.

Last year we had a good turn out of Lodge members at the Local Race in Fredericksburg, However I would like to see that number grow for 2010. The race is on June 12 down town on William St. Fredericksburg should be the largest Race in the Country again this year. Last year we lost out to Culpepper by 2 cars but those 2 cars will be back in Fredericksburg this year. How do I know that? It’s because we had 3 cars race in Culpeper Local last year and 2 of the 3 will be in Fredericksburg this year. Believe me I have not lived it down from the Fredericksburg Race Director yet!!!

Ok Guys and Ladies I'm putting out the challenge to all of you members to help us make this year we will never forget! We need your Help Please Support our committee Dinners and raffles, just like you always have!!! We are working hard to make this year the best that we have had.

I just hope we can send several kids and cars to Akron this year to the World Championships!!!

Thank You,
Kyle Danielson
