HOPEWELL MOOSE NEWS 2014-2015 Premier Lodge Award May 2016 Hopewell Moose Family Center Newsletter Hopewell Moose Lodge 50 Year Lifetime Membership Award The Hopewell Moose Lodge will host the Run For The Wall Midway Route final stop on 26 May in the Ballroom for dinner before heading to DC. This marks our third year and we are very excited that our Lodge is part of such a historic event. "To promote healing among ALL veterans and their families and friends, to call for an accounting of all Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action (POW / MIA); to honor the memory of those Killed in Action (KIA) from all wars; and to support our military personnel all over the world." Midway Route Leadership Team 3:15 Depart Fort Lee, VA to Moose Lodge 3:30 Arrive Moose Lodge 1472 Please congratulate our newest 50 Year Lifetime Membership Award recipients. The following members in our Lodge have attained 50 years of service in the Loyal Order of Moose. They will receive their new Life Membership card, a congratulatory letter and Life Membership Certificate from Moose International. Please offer them your sincere gratitude for their dedication to our fraternity. Charles D. Story Jr. John E. Wills Robert Earl Walker Fraternally, Volunteer Participation: One of the Biggest Issues Facing NonProfit Organizations Today. Volunteer Participation: One of the Biggest Issues Facing Non-Profit Organizations Today. All over the Country, a common theme seems to be developing. Maybe it is just a sign of today s times; the more we plug in to connect, the more we disconnect from our family, neighbors and community. In our efforts to stay connected, we actually further distance ourselves. Perhaps it has more to do with today s culture, and/or increasing crime rates, or economic issues. Whatever the underlying issue is, or the systematic steps that led us to where we are today; the one thing that still remains is the need to aid and assist others through non-profit organizations with the support of volunteers. The common thread across the Nation is not only getting volunteers, but more importantly, retaining the volunteers. Do these sound familiar? Common reasons people cite for not volunteering: 1) I don t want to go to meetings. 6) I don t like Jane Doe or John Doe. 2) I don t want to commit. 7) I really don t understand what you do. 3) It sounds like too much work. 8) No one has asked me to help 4) I just don t have time. 9) I don t feel qualified 5) I won t know anybody. 10) I m really not sure who to talk to for info We would like to develop and implement a process to initiate a program of volunteer participants that are profile based on their interests or expertise. From this process, we would like to enrich and expand our current Volunteer Recognition program to include more of a comprehensive Volunteer Rewards and Recognition program that we can build upon over the next few years. This new program will include: motivation stimulators, feedback, clear and concise areas needed for volunteer efforts, expectations & descriptions, training/and or support, recruitment tools, mentors, exit meeting follow -ups, reward & recognition levels. It will also include a Volunteer Coordinator/Chairman, and a volunteer committee. If you are interested in helping with this new initiative and developing pathways for this program, please contact: Gerry Mastrovito Governor Madelyn Collier Senior Regent or Brad Ozmore Moose Legion Chairman Stay tuned for more information! ~D.M. Ozmore~ Kurt T.

Governor s Message Well brothers, how time flies by as we start a new moose year. First: I would like to thank Troy and his board for a great job that they performed the past two years. Secondly: I want to thank the Moose membership for their support and trust as your governor. This year I would like to build on all the success that Troy and his board has achieved. To accomplish this success it will take all of us to reach this goal. We have some new faces on the board with plenty of experience. Let's get behind the board with 1472 pride, and let's be successful. We have a lot of good activities at our lodge with dances, Dj's, sports, holiday outings for good family fun, the queen of hearts with the pot over $4,000.00 and many more. Come to the lodge on Wednesday and Friday night's where our kitchen makes some really good meals at reasonable prices. Lastly and most importantly, our membership. We need to keep AND bring in new members. Again thank you for your support. Your Governor Gerry Mastrovito From the Office DID YOU KNOW: The Office is open from 9am 5pm, Mon-Fri?

We start a new year with new membership numbers and need everyone s best efforts. Keep several applications with you at all times. You never know when someone you know will express an interest in becoming a Moose. Having an application ready to go can make a big difference in your success as a sponsor.
