Please read the posted changes in the By-Laws and House Rules on the bulletin board adjacent to the ATM machine. These are important to the continued enjoyment of our facilities and fraternalism. A big THANK YOU to Bill Olsen, Dave Militich, and Kathy Brockman for the many hours devoted to this important task and to bring our club up to current standards of operation as expected by Grand Aerie and State/Local governances. I MUST PERSONALLY THANK the Squirrels Club for their hard work in 2016 year end for their efforts to raise money for Multiple Sclerosis Society of Spokane. The money that they raise stays here in Spokane to assist our friends, relatives, and neighbors suffering from this debilitating degenerative disease. At my installation, I did announce MS Society as my special charity. I also promised that I would match the first $500 collected for this charity. At the Jan 16 meeting of the Squirrels Club, I was invited to hear their year end report. As of Dec 31, The Squirrels collected $ As PROM- ISED, I added my $500 donation to their efforts. The Spokane Aerie #2 supports numerous charities. Get on board with those efforts. ANY ONE OF OUR MEM- BERS..ANY GROUP of members can show their support by setting up a similar MATCHING FUND OFFER.

3 FEBRUARY 2017 The SPOKANE EAGLE Page 3 Special Trustee Bulletin Fellow Eagles, For several months, we have talked about need for price increases to meet higher costs of groceries, utilities and various costs of keeping the Aerie financially sound. With passage of the new minimum wage law, talking about increases has become reality. Effective February 1 st, the following increases will take place: Prime Rib - $15.75 Prime Rib with Prawns - $ $12.75 with Prawns - $15.75 Bar Snacks with current price less than $4.00 increase $0.50 Bar Snacks with current price $5.00 or higher increase $1.00 Well Drinks will increase $0.25 Call or Top Shelf drinks increase $0.50 All Beer increase $0.25 Soda Pop increase $0.25 Coffee and Tea increase $0.25 Juices increase $0.25 Even with price increases food and drink at the Aerie remains a bargain. As Trustees, we regret having to make these changes, but there is no way we can absorb increased employee costs without them. In future years, additional increases will be needed to meet additional increases in the minimum wage as well as providing paid Sick Leave to employees. Entertainment Cover Charges For many years $5.00 is the cover charge we have collected as a means of providing entertainment for members and guests. Too many nights the cover charge collected does not even cover half the amount of the entertainer s fees. Obviously, this cannot continue. While for some entertainers we will keep the $5.00 cover charge, for others an increase will take place. The current plan is to base the cover charge upon the fees charged by the entertainer. Advertising posters will state exactly what the cover charge will be for each scheduled event. Even with these increased cover charges, entertainment, like food and drink remains a bargain. We will continue to bring new and exciting entertainment at very reasonable prices. Upcoming Entertainment February will be an exciting month for entertainment. To start the month, Chris Ellenberger will be doing his usual variety act on Friday the 3 rd, and on Saturday the 4 th will be doing a special event benefiting Honor Flight as he remembers Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and Big Bopper, J.P. Richardson. Chris show about the day the music died is a can t miss event. The Heart Ball takes place on Friday, the 10 th with Stagecoach West providing the music. This event is once again worth attending. Special activities will be part of the Ball. Tickets go on sale February 1 st. On Saturday, the 11 th, Sharky and the Fins are back with us and promise to keep the dance floor full. Friday, the 17th brings Big Band back as the full 18-piece Men of Rhythm band performs in the banquet room. Tickets are $10.00 for this special event and are on sale now. Stage Riders close the weekend on Saturday with s rock and plenty of country-western to keep the dance floor full. Theresa Edwards plays Friday the 24th followed on Saturday by Nobody Famous. If you ve seen this great band play at venues like Arbor Crest Winery, you know this will be an event worth being at. Once again, tickets are $10.00 and on sale now. To get things really going, we have Seattle mentalist Brian Ledbetter scheduled on March 4 th in the banquet room. Brian performs all over the west coast and has developed a reputation as a top-notch entertainer. Tickets are $10.00 and include the opportunity to move to the Lounge for Stage Riders when Brian s show ends. Finally, we continue to offer some great opportunities on Wednesday s. with Randy Harms goes form 6-10 pm. The first Wednesday of the month the Trustees offer a great spaghetti dinner from 5-7m pm. The second Wednesday the Officers are proving a really good Lasagna, followed by Maria s Pizza Sandwich night the third Wednesday. The fourth Wednesday another great meal will be available at a decent price. Burger Night continues along with Trivia Tuesday. We really hope members and their friends will find our improved schedule of entertainment worth participating in. We as Trustees are committed to making Aerie # 2 a great place to be a member of.
