Greetings from the Governor - Carl Crayton
Greetings From your Governor:
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing me to serve you
again this year as your Governor. I will continue to work hard and along with
our Administrator and dedicated Board of Officers, I'm sure it will be a good and
productive year.
We had a busy end of March and April with the Supreme Governor's visit, the
FBMA Regional Pool Tournament, the Moose Legion Celebration and my 1st
FBMA Mid-Year Conference where I was extremely proud to hear Tallahassee
Moose Lodge 1075 was the top contributor to the Moose Charities Endowment
Fund that supports Moose Heart and Moosehaven. I would like to thank all our
wonderful Bingo Volunteers for all your hard work as well as our Administrator
Richard Williamson and our Board of Officers for the commitment to make Tal-
lahassee Moose number 1.
I would like to also say thank you to my buddy, Donna Gandy, for all she does
even when it's not her job or responsibility.
Thanks to Wade Bennett and Pat Browder for spear heading the Supreme Gov-
ernor's visit. To Gary and Nancy Gebhart along with Barb and Deeders for all
their hard work during the FBMA Regional Pool Tournament and the Moose Le-
gion Celebration. And to all our Bingo Volunteers for making these things possi-
ble. Thanks to my Wife, Tina, for all her patience and understanding my commit-
ment and why it was so important to me.
Special thanks to Bill Bramblett for taking on the responsibility of putting our
newsletter together.
Again, thank you for one more year. You know the wisest man in history taught
us many years ago that you can't be a leader until you've learned how to serve. I
work for you.
Thank You,
Carl Crayton

This is a New Year and I want to thank you all for your support and trust in me to be able to per-
form the duties of Senior Regent for the ensuing year 2016-2017.
My Goal is to have a fun and productive year. I want all of us to work together as one. We are all
working toward the same goal, the support of the children at Mooseheart and the seniors and
Moosehaven. We all, men and women, need to work together and help each other when asked or
when you see a need, step in and offer help. We are not men against women and women against
men but a unit that should act as one. Not be torn in two because of hurt feelings, bad personal
history or any other kind of conflict that has happened in the past. That is the past, leave it there
and start new today working toward the future of our Chapter and Lodge working as one. In the fol-
lowing months I hope that goodwill and contentment will flow through our groups to create peace
in our LODGE HOME.
I would like to welcome our new Co-workers and Thanks their Sponsors.
*Chris Creek - Sponsor Jamie Sanderson *Robbie Sharp - Sponsor Sonja Guthrie
*Karen Faircloth - Sponsor Beverly Vichich *Dorence Dedge - Sponsor Franklin Faircloth
*Candace Recla - Sponsor Susan Faivre-Zuniga *Cindy Fray - Sponsor Marcia DeCamp
*Kirk Headley-Perdue - Sponsor Robert Landen *Amelia Rankin - Sponsor Darrell Mortier
Committee assignment letters have gone out and we are going to have our first meeting of all com-
mittees on May 12, 2016 following the Membership/Retention Chapter night meeting. The chapter
night meeting starts at 7pm but come early and have refreshments at 6:30 pm, and visits with your
fellow co-workers. Our 2nd meeting of the month is on May 26, 2016 at 7 pm. I hope to see all of
your smiling faces at the meetings.
I want to congratulate our new Academy of Friendship co-workers Sonja Guthrie, DJ White and Bar-
bara Mortier. Thank you for all of your hard work.
In closing, we are here to help you. If you need help or have questions please let myself or one of
my officers know and if we do not know the answer we will find out who does. Remember we are
one, so let us start acting like it and support Mooseheart and Moosehaven as a united unit.
