To My Kinderhook Elks Family

Happy New Year!!! It’s a time for new beginnings, new ideas, and new perspectives, and it’s time to let go of some of the things holding you back. The Lodge year is quickly coming to the end, and guess what that means? We need officers, would you like to move the Lodge forward? Please if you have any questions about being an officer ask, if you would like to be an officer let an officer know. The new Lodge year is fast approaching.

Many thanks to everyone for all their efforts with Marion Stegmann, another successful year. We tried some new things, and some of them worked. Woo hoo!! Members donated money, toys, and their time, everything you did helped and is greatly appreciated. The more people we get involved the better. Thank you also to the Boy Scouts pack, troop and adventure crew 113, the Kinderhook Runners Club, the Girl Scouts and every person who did anything to help make this program possible. It is amazing to see the love people have for one another. Thank you so much.

I want to thank the members that go above and beyond every day. Many times, as I step into the Lodge and there are people here doing things without recognition, not because they don’t deserve it, but because we just don’t know things are getting done. The to-do list is getting done, windows replaced, bathroom repairs, wall work, step support, thank you to everyone.

The Christmas party was a success, everyone had a great time. I heard nothing but good things about the event. Great job to the coordinator of the event.

There are a few crews that need some help. If you have some time to help out either on a Sunday breakfast, a Wednesday night dinner, Sunday’s wings and things, afternoon football snacks please let someone know, and if you don’t know who to tell let me know. Every crew is different, so if you pick a crew and it isn’t the perfect fit, there are other crews available. Come get involved. The more you’re here the more friends you make.

I love the fact that on the wall at St Luke’s Church they have posted:

“Volunteers are not paid because they are worthless, but because they are priceless!”

Thank you to all of you for everything you do for the Lodge and the community we serve.

God bless.
