Your support of your Officer and Club Management team is nothing short of fantastic and I want to personally Thank You. This past year we succeeded in accomplishing many of our goals. 1. Getting our Lodges finances back in manageable order. 2. Renovating the Lodge Main Hall to increase Lodge lease outs and rentals. 3. Improving the overall Club experience with an enhanced menu and drink specials. 4. Having an aggressive Club Management team. We were handed some enormous financial problems of which our Lodge has suffered through the years, however we accepted the task and by having the right people and allowing them to do the job unhindered we were able to succeed in tackling these problems, nevertheless we will need to keep meticulous oversight and control or we will fail and fall back into the trench we just climbed out of. I would like to give special thanks to Robert Burke COB Trustee, Chuck Dalool Treasurer, Joanna Howard Secretary, Robert Leon Loyal Knight, & Jim Salazar Leading Knight, all who will be leaving the Lodge Officer Corps, I thank you for your service to your Lodge and fellow members, with your knowledge and efforts we were able to get our house in much better order, I look forward to working with you in future projects and committees. Exalted Rulers Message Continued on page 8 Leading Knights Station Loyal Knights Station Lecturing Knights Station Sorry No Article Submitted Coming Sunday March 24th our Annual Officer Deep Pit Pork E Que. My last event as Lecturing Knight and lots of things planned. This year were preparing a Tex / Mex theme that will spice up the event over passed years. Raffling off a wheel barrel full of liquor, 50/50 drawings and entertainment by The Copper Canyon Band. It’s shaping up to be a great event. Line dance class starts at 3:00 for our cowboy and cowgirl newbie’s. Come join the fun April 1st marks the beginning of our fraternal year. Lots of great things are on the schedule. Special thanks to Exalted Ruler Ben Ortega taking the helm again for the 2nd straight year. Though last year proved to be one of our most successful, this year will bring new challenges. Not only planning on continued success for this year but to institute programs to insure financial health for years to come. As we say goodbye to last year and take our first steps in our journey of this New Year, I’m reminded of T.S. Eliot infamous saying “What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from”. Make your new beginning and get involved in our many committees or charities and try to attend all the great events that are ongoing. I believe that we all belong to the best lodge in southern California. With your help and support I’m confident that this year will be our greatest yet. Elections came and went quickly for the Lecturing Knight station. If you blinked, you missed it. I sure did! I said, “Yes, I accept.” And before I knew it, I was elected as your new Lecturing Knight! Well, for those of you that asked me to take on this position, I thank you for trusting me with this station, Brotherly Love. My name is Julie Gomez, and I have been a member for just 2 years. As I study my new station, I have been reflecting on what Brotherly Love means to me. The dictionary states Brotherly befitting a brother; affectionate and loyal; fraternal. In the Bible, Brothers of the Lord, were persons who formed part of Jesus’ entourage. As Elks, our motto – “The faults of our members we write upon the sand, their virtues upon the tables of love and memory.” I realize that we all come from so many walks of life, but one thing we do share and have in common is that we are ELKS. As Elks, I have learned that we are united, sympathetic, friendly, caring, supportive, and an extension of family. Being an Elk to me means to be ready to help one another when you are called upon. So, as you see, I am here to serve by being a servant to God. With your support, I will take on the various responsibilities and hope to complete each task successfully. Fraternally Judith Lumbreras Esteemed Leading Knight --------------------------------- C H A R I T Y Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.
