This will help us better control our costs and reduce our volunteers time for getting the newsletter out to you! Thank you. Message from the loom board. Review of Dinner Costs: We are reviewing our cost increases for the last year and may have to increase the costs of dinners beginning January 2019. We will try to make any increase minimal, but some of our meals are barely break even as it is. We understand this is not desirable but may be unavoidable in order to provide the dinners we have in the past. We have many unexpected costs this year and will likely have more next year (bar coolers, furnace & air conditioner repairs, electrical upgrades to name a few). We want to give a heads up to our members so that any increases will not come as a surprise. Thanks for your continued support! THANK YOU shout outs.. The Moose would like to take this corner and say thank you to some very important members for their hard work, dedication & donations. A special thank you to the SNOWBALL DANCE CREW (to many names to list!) for doing an awesome job in making the night very special for the 200+ kids & adults that attended! A VERY special thank you to Harvard Fire Dept & Sparky the Dog and, DJ Jim Mathews For all you did to make our Snowball Dance a huge success and put the smiles on all the kids faces!! You guys rock!! A very BIG thank you to Roy Luth & Diane Pelayo For a great Meat Raffle! Gil Whaples, Dick Van Hout & Crew For winterizing the Pavilion this year! We appreciate all you do for our lodge! A HUGE thank you to OUR NEWSLETTER CREW For folding, sealing, labeling, and sorting of our newsletters! You are always there with one phone call to help! We appreciate ALL you do!!
