PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Hello, Stockdale Moose!

The new Board is starting the 2023-2024 year off running with a Cinco de Mayo Dinner/Dance on May 5th with Rubie Maldonado and Rosa Madrid as chairman. Our Ronald McDonald House Walk for Kids Team is still looking for donations and will draw the winner of the Back Pack on May 18th. The Board is looking forward to more participation and support of our community service this year. And we have a new Sunshine Child! Learn all about her later in this newsletter. There will also be a special election to fill the open Trustee position.

Our new theme this year is: Proud Past, Bright Future. As this year begins the Board of Officers graciously ask for support from our Stockdale Lodge members. Congratulations and thanks to the outgoing Board on a successful year. We want to remind everyone this is your Lodge! Decisions are made by you, the members, at our General Meetings. No one person or Officer makes decisions. It is the Board’s duty to bring your ideas, activity proposal, recommendations, etc. to members of the Board so they can be presented at the General Meetings.

Many thanks to our volunteers and chairman as we see improvements to our Lodge facility and the many activities planned during the year. Our Board wants our General Meetings to be streamlined, informative and fun. Plan to attend the General Meeting on May 4th or May 18th .

Fraternally, Chris Myers-Mainland,

President
