Now, hold on to your seats. The Supreme Council has instructed your Director General to look into
the possibility of changing our membership structure. Men and women would all become members of the
Loyal Order of Moose. Women would have the opportunity to advance in our Order by becoming members
of the Women of the Moose, while men could advance by joining the Moose Legion. The Degrees of the
Loyal Order of Moose and Women of the Moose would not change. However, Associations would be
comprised of both men and women. This will not happen overnight, but will take place step by step with
much thought being given to protecting the future of both the Women of the Moose and the Moose
Legion.

Before I get on to business I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone and their families a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy and extremely Healthy New Year!!!!
On December 19, 2011 we held our 2nd Chapter meeting of the month at Billi-Jo Sheehan's house.
We discussed the following items:
1. At our first meeting of the month Anne suggested doing a raffle of a "Winter Wonderland Basket" for a fund raising event. It was approved by the Board of Officers on December 12th. We are looking for any donations to complete this basket. If any of you wish to donate we would appreciate anything you can give. As you all know we can't include any liquor in the basket but anything else will do. Let me know and one of us will make arrangements to pick it up or for you to drop it off wherever is convenient.

2. On January 2nd, our first meeting of the month will be held at my home located at 239 Sutton Drive, Windsor Locks. At that time we would appreciate that anyone attending please bring a small appetizer for a snack after the meeting.  I will provide water, diet coke, Gatorade or vitamin water, coffee (caf and decaf) or tea. Please let me know if you will be attending. Barbara, I do have three steps into the house. We'll have the meeting in my kitchen if you and your mom are able to attend.  I'll send Tom downstairs where he can watch TV, do laundry (ha) or whatever

3.  On January 13th Marlborough Lodge is having a steak dinner.  Don't know any of the details such as price or time as yet.  If I hear anything will advise.

4.  Beginning January and going through April - Moose is waiving the application fee for all new members.  Now is the time to get people, friends, and relatives to join our wonderful organization.  We do so many good things and have a lot of fun doing them!!!  So, please, let's Create Some Interest! Remember - sign 2 up and get your dues paid for a year! Just a little added incentive.

5.  a. There will be another training seminar on January 15th from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Anyone wishing to attend please contact Heidi Chase for details.
     b.  There will be a 2 Hott class on January 21st and 22nd from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Again, anyone wishing to attend please contact Heidi Chase for details.


I apologize for the "book". I wanted to make sure that I included everything necessary. I probably either forgot something or I overdid it…... Thank you.
Again, Merry Christmas to everyone!!! Have a safe Holiday!
