Here’s why we ask you to … Learn about elections

Some new (or veteran!) members assume that they’ll see a notice posted calling for Lodge officer nominations in plenty of time to get on the ballot. But that’s not required, and as a result, too many potential leaders may miss their chance. Read this now, and you won’t!
By Jerry O’Connor Assistant General Governor
Why do we elect Lodge officers? The answer may seem obvious – to provide direction and leadership for the Lodge and its facility (the latter through their service as the House Committee). However, it’s also a legal requirement: every Lodge is incorporated in the state or province in which it is located, and all those jurisdictions require the election of corporate officers.
Last updated: 1/11/2012 6:14pm EST - Sad to report, Dave is out! He went all in on King Jack against a pair of tens. On the flop there was a ten! Dave is out of the tournament at 19th place! Congratulations to all that played!
On January 9, 2012, the Moose International Las Vegas Texas Hold’Em Tournament started as planned with a much bigger group of poker players this year. With a field of 814 players, some new and some veteran, the words shuffle up and deal was said. Our lodge is well represented in this year’s tournament.
We will be posting new information to this article as results come in. Please, stay tuned! Here is a list of our players for this years tournament!
Update: Our lodge had the largest number of members attending this years tournament of any other lodge. Congratulations to the Women of the Moose Chapter #1674 for having the largest number of ladies from one chapter at the tournament!
