Message From Your Governor

Brothers and Sisters:

Here it is March, hopefully everyone had a great Valentines day. Here it is NASCAR season. We will be airing all of the races so come join us.

Now that March is here it is time to start the election process for board of officers. If you would be interested in becoming an officer fill out a nomination form. We will be having our nomination meetings on the 9th, 23rd, of March and the 6th, of April. These meetings will start at 6pm. Then the elections will be in April. Also, during March, we will be installing new exterior light weather permitting. These new lights will be LED’s, which will not only help on the cost of electricity, but will also provide better lighting around the lodge.We are looking at having a golf tournament in September, and are looking for volunteers to help CJ put this on. If you would be interested in helping him please contact either CJ, myself, or Dean to volunteer.

Fraternally yours, William, Willie, Stackhouse

Message From Your Senior Regent

Dear Co-Workers,

With March here, hopefully, that means spring is in the air! I don’t know about you all, but I’m looking forward to some warmer weather. As always, membership retention is on everyone’s mind. It’s no secret the retaining our membership is one of the biggest challenges we face. I recently read that we do not successfully communicate with our members and that better communication will help insure retention of our members. Better communication doesn’t mean the same thing to one person as it does to another. What does better communication mean, or look like, to you? Is it a phone call? An email? A postcard? Talking face to face? In the technological age we live in, texting and email are the most common types of communication. However, these types of communication do not allow you to engage and read your listeners, observe body language, develop listening skills, and really get to know the person. However, they are a fast and effective way to reach the membership. We must adopt a new attitude that lets every member know that we want them to remain members of the Women of the Moose and that we are willing to make the changes necessary to make this happen. What changes would you like to see happen? Active participation of our members is a vital part of the success of our Chapter. Every member is important to us. As you know, the excellence of any organization is only the reflection of its members. In order for our Chapter to be truly successful and to continue in our program of service to Chapter, Lodge, home and community, member participation in activities, meetings, events, etc is vital. If you have not taken the opportunity to attend our meetings or activities lately, please consider this a personal invitation to join us and get reacquainted with your fellow co-workers. We truly have a wonderful group of co -workers at our meetings and events, but we are always in need of more active members. Won’t you please consider getting more involved?
