January is here already and time to start working on filling the officer seats for the new Elk year which starts April 1st 2017. If you would like to be a officer contact any of the officers or let Lori in the office know.

A big "Thank You" to many of you who have helped out at the Lodge: Debbie and Sam Butorovich for the beautiful Christmas decorations throughout the lodge as well as the countless time spent on fixing and cleaning things around the lodge. Bill Clifford for his countless hours of keeping the weeds at bay! Debbie Sutherland and pals for Taco Tuesday! John Rochon and Ben Scholl for Monday Night Football. Cheryl Taylor for cooking the brunch on Dec 4th as well as her helpers Janet Thomason and Rachael Sandoval & Andy Sandeen!
