New Facebook Page
Due to circumstances beyond our control the Communication Committee Chairman, Art
Steward and the Board
of Officers, created a
“Community Page”.
We apologize for the
confusion but this was
necessary to regain
control of our Facebook Page. If you see
the profile picture below, you are at the
correct site.

In This Issue
We were happy to host the Old Dominion Moose Legion 148 Ritual Team,
for their practice, tonight. It was also a great night, as 3 new legionnaires,
were conferred. Welcome brothers! (Ed Jones, Mathew Kilbourn, Francis
Pattin)

Message from our Territory
Managers on District Elections
Brothers,
You are receiving this correspondence as I have received many inquiries
expressing concern as to the District Presidents holding a second term in
office.

During the exit Breakfast at the VMA Mid-Year in Norfolk, TM Rodger
Huffman expressed that District Presidents were encouraged to run for
a second term.

This “suggestion” is (of course) not mandatory, as it would take a
change in the by-laws.

I concur only if the President is doing a good job and ESPECIALLY
if there is no one else to run.

This is not meant to discourage anyone from placing their name on the
ballot; competition is healthy.
Hopefully this will clarify any misunderstanding.
Fraternally,
Mike Rios

Governor’s Message
I have been truly blessed to serve you for the past two years. There are
countless people to thank for my time in the “HOT” seat. I have seen the
true value of a strong lodge and what you can accomplish if given the tools
and resources. The WOTM contributed to the success of the LOOM over
the past year. We partnered together for the Rocker & Cradle fundraiser to
increase our giving power to the Endowment Fund, worked together at our
summer picnics, collected items for the needy, all as a TEAM. My time has
been rewarded by how close the Moose Legion, WOTM and LOOM worked
on dozens of events. If you look back, it would be hard to distinguish which
ones were WOTM, LOOM or Moose Legion’s. We truly have come together
and grown as a Lodge. Please support you new Board of Officers, Women
& Men, as we continue to prosper and lead the way in the VMA. I look forward to seeing more of you step up an serve on various committees and
attend lodge meetings. God Bless Mooseheart & Moosehaven.
“Myrtle Casey Senior
Luncheon”
Senior Lunch has really taken off this year.
The menu is the best deal in town. There
were 70 Attendees last month. Hazel
Krelik won the door prize.
Our next luncheon will be held on April
21th—same place, same time.
Hope to see you then!
Message the Moose
International
Membership Department
Brothers ALL,
Each of you can surely see the huge numbers
that your Lodge or your Territory has to overcome by
looking at the column on the right hand side of the
(above attached AED) report by Membership Chairman Calvin Greene. This huge number (-3088 unpaid just for March) will certainly cripple our
membership goal of 34,335 by 4/30/16.
At present time the Association stands at 34,658.
With everyone teaming together, making contacts
with unpaid members, Virginia can overcome this
deficit. Please use teamwork, commitment and fraternalism an reach out to your members in arrears
for January, February and MARCH.
Supreme Governor Terry Walls will be coming to
northern Virginia April 15th and 16th and telethons
need be conducted during his visits at those Lodges
as well as others.
Together, we can overcome the huge number
above and move our Association inside the top 5 at
St. Louis. Thank each of you with this gallant membership effort in making Virginia one of our premier
Associations. God Bless and thank each of you
again for your devotion and fraternalism, it’s making
a difference.
Administrator’s Message
Fraternally,
My first year as Administrator of the Hopewell Moose Lodge has come to
an end. It has indeed been an interesting and rewarding year for me.
Rodger Huffman
Continue to support your new “Board of Officers” and you will see better
things happen at the Hopewell Lodge.
I can’t thank each individual personally for the help I’ve received this past
year; therefore, I’ll just say “thanks” to each and everyone who had a part
in making Hopewell Lodge the best in the state of Virginia!

The Women of
the Moose,
Hopewell, Virginia - Chapter
1180,
Would cordially like
to invite you to attend our
“Installation Ceremony” on Wednesday, April 27th,
2016 at 7 p.m.
Please show your
support and encouragement for
your Chapters incoming Board of
Officers, Committee Chairmen and
Appointed Officers
for the 2016/2017
term.
Unified in oath and
commitment, these
co-workers will
dedicate countless
hours in service,
not only our lodge,
but also for Mooseheart & Moosehaven.
Please join us as
we wish them a
very successful
year. Refreshments
will be served immediately following
the ceremony,
which will be held
in the ballroom.

Senior Regents Message
Spring has arrived, and with it comes new beginnings.
April brings forth a new year for both our lodge and chapter. This month, the Women of the Moose will have our Installation Ceremony complete with a brand new Board of
Officers, Appointed Chairmen, & Committee Chairmen to
guide us through the next year.
It is with mixed emotion that I find myself writing one of
the last articles ever, as your Senior Regent. It’s true what
they say…..”By the time you feel familiar and comfortable
with the position….your time is over.” My year was wonderful, and for that I owe a big thank you to all the Collegians,
who served before me and took me under their wing. To all
my fellow co-workers who supported and encouraged me,
(even though I’m sure I caused a few headaches along
with some laughter). To the Men’s Board of Officers, thank
you not only for your support of Women and Chapter, but
for your patience with me. For all my requests, for all my
questions, and for all the times I asked, “Why”?
Lastly, thank you to all of our lodge members for your
support of our Chapter. Your participation and donations
with ALL of our functions (and we hit you guys up with a
lot!), made this past year, a very successful year. From Ice
cream socials, taco & spaghetti dinners, 50/50’s, bake sales,
cooler and rocking chair raffles, Fall Bazaar & craft Sales,
Paint Nites, nursing home contributions, Father’s Day Breakfast,
Children’s parties, holiday dances...right up to our upcoming yard sale. Your support has been tremendous, and
we are lucky to have such member support. We can only
be as successful as our members contributions allow.
I never would have thought when I attended my very first
Chapter meeting a couple of years ago, that I would ever
be a Senior Regent.
I can still recall looking around in both confusion & awe,
when I heard the song, “Mooseheart The Happiest”, (and to
be honest, I wasn’t even sure if I was going to come back
to another meeting), but I did. I kept coming back because
it was bigger than me, it was a challenge, & it served
a higher purpose.
In Faith, Hope & Charity,
~D.M. Ozmore~

Moose Legion Chairman
As promised the Moose Legion has hit the ground running this
year. We have sponsored a monthly breakfast, held a paint night
social, participated in the ODML 148 Winter Celebration, held a
silent auction, partnered with the WOTM for a Christmas Dance
and Yeti Cooler Raffle and added 4 new legionnaires to our fraternity. Our most recent milestone, is our proudest! Your Moose
Legion is the newest sponsor of a Sunshine Child from Mooseheart!! The Moose Legion will be making monthly donations,
holiday and birthday contributions from our own budget, to sponsor a 15 yr old young man named, Latif.
Number of meetings the Moose Legion holds each month....1
Yearly dues for membership in the Moose Legion.............$17
Making the difference in a child's life..................PRICELESS
Join us today and be part of a bigger plan!

Brad Ozmore
ODML 148 Ritual Team visited the Lodge for a Mini-Conferral
“Volunteer Participation: One of the Biggest Issues Facing NonProfit Organizations Today.”
All over the Country, a common theme seems to be developing. Maybe it is just a sign of today’s times; the
more we plug in to connect, the more we disconnect from our family, neighbors and community. In our efforts
to stay connected, we actually further distance ourselves. Perhaps it has more to do with today’s culture, and/
or increasing crime rates, or economic issues. Whatever the underlying issue is, or the systematic steps that
led us to where we are today; the one thing that still remains is the need to aid and assist others through nonprofit organizations with the support of volunteers. The common thread across the Nation is not only getting
volunteers, but more importantly, retaining the volunteers.
Do these sound familiar? Common reasons people cite for not volunteering:
1) I don’t want to go to meetings.
6) I don’t like Jane Doe or John Doe.
2) I don’t want to commit.
7) I really don’t understand what you do.
3) It sounds like too much work.
8) No one has asked me to help
4) I just don’t have time.
9) I don’t feel qualified
5) I won’t know anybody.
10) I’m really not sure who to talk to for info
We would like to develop and implement a “process” to initiate a program of volunteer participants that are
profile based on their interests or expertise.
From this process, we would like to enrich and expand our current “Volunteer Recognition” program to include
more of a comprehensive “Volunteer Rewards and Recognition” program that we can build upon over the next
few years.
This new program will include: motivation stimulators, feedback, clear and concise areas needed for volunteer efforts, expectations & descriptions, training/and or support, recruitment tools, mentors, exit meeting follow-ups, reward & recognition levels. It will also include a “Volunteer Coordinator/Chairman”, and a volunteer
committee.
If you are interested in helping with this new initiative and developing pathways for this program,
please contact:
Troy K. King –Governor, Brad Ozmore –Moose Legion Chairman, or Dawn Ozmore –Sr. Regent, for more information.
Stay tuned for more information!

Holiday Helper at Fort Lee
“It’s The First Time”
You knew her when you first saw her. She’s had the shape you really liked, those
curves right where you wanted them. A good solid body even if she had a few flaws,
you could fix those. Those big, round headlights and that fat rear end. Yeah, she’s the
one for you! She sounds smooth, but has a little growl when she warms up. You know
she’s the one for you, especially after you saw her with her top off. Yep, she’s a ‘67
Mustang GT500, Eleanor Convertible with a Roush 427/480 HP SRX Stroker Engine
complete with a FAST EFI fuel injection system and a custom AOD automatic transmission. A classic muscle car with a modern twist.
Maybe your flavor is retro rides, custom bikes and everything in between; from the
1916 Indian Twin to the Confederate’s latest creation, P51 Fighter Combat. Wide open
ride with the wind in your face!
Many of us remember the day we got our first set of wheels. It’s a relationship that
can’t be replaced or forgotten. Our rides are more than a piece of metal on
wheels. It’s …MY RIDE!
See those restored works of art that will bring back memories. Come to the
Hopewell Moose Lodge Family Center’s first car & bike show on June 11, 2016
from 8am – 3pm.
This first time ever event hosted at our lodge, will be open to the public and enjoyed by
many, young and old. Bring your child, grandchild, grandfather or favorite girl. Got a
ride you’re proud of? Enter the show and show your pride and joy. Two wheels or
four, registration is only $15 before June 5th, $20 on day of show. We are also looking
for vendors to display your favorite wears starting at $25.
This inaugural show is made possible by our host, “The Southern Knight Cruisers Car Club.” Over 30 awards will be handed out along with dash plaques to the
first 100 registered vehicles. Food will be provided by the Moose Lodge & available for purchase. It promises to be a fun day for the whole family.

100% of the proceeds goes to support our Country’s military personnel and their families, specifically: the Fort Lee’s Holiday Helper Association. The Holiday Helper’s Association enhances the quality of life for our military and their families, offers assistance
and support to our military, wounded warriors, retirees, widows, survivors, veterans
and their families and is dedicated to provide comfort and support to our military children who face diverse challenges as their parent(s) serves.

Member Retention
Chairman: Ray
Schaefer, Sr.
As this is my last message
as Membership Retention
Chairman, I want to thank
everyone for all the help I
received this past year.
Whith all that help, I am
pleased to write we have
made our goal for new
membership with a month
to spare. Great job all. We
will have a new Board of
Officers and New Chairman coming up and I
know you all will support
them as well. But above all
always keep our men and
women in the military in
your heart and prayers.
MOOSE CHARITIES
Chairman: Roy
Snyder
My dear Brothers and Sisters I want to ask for your
help and generosity once
again. I would like to see
The Hopewell Moose Family Center be the leader in
the fraternity with Membership in the Moose
Charities Donors
Club. Many of you throw
$10.00 a month away playing jar tabs, pull tabs, Instant bingos etc, and
when we get done we say
dang I just threw money
away. Wouldn’t it be nice if
we could say I just helped
some Child at Mooseheart
or Senior at Moosehaven,
when you choose to set
up your gift of $10.00 per
month you will become a
dedicated Donor of the
M&M Club. Please join
with us today. Thank You
Roy Snyder
