Findlay Family Center Moose Lodge #698 Women of the Moose Chapter # 362 1028 W. Main Cross Findlay, Ohio 45840 Business: 419 422 9662 The Friendliest Place in Town September/October 2016 Lodge News From Our GOVORNER, John Shearer Hello everyone and Welcome to Findlay Moose Lodge #698. Whether you are a new member, visitor, guest or a long time member and frequent patron, you are all a very important part of this fraternity. We here in Findlay have the privilege to belong to one of the best lodges anywhere. I believe that what makes our lodge so special are the members. But there would be no member s without some very special and important people. First of all, our office, it is the heart of the Lodge and without the diligents of our office staff we would surely flounder THANK YOU Jaci and Ruthie! Next our Board of Officers. We try to keep everything running within the guide lines of the General Laws. So if you have a question, complaint, or concern, Please submit it in writing and come to the meetings. Then there is the barstaff. As I have said many times before, they are THE BEST. Our kitchen staff works very hard to put out great food, quickly, and at a fair price. Our janitors are always working before and after hours to give us a clean comfortable environment. And we have many great volunteers, and could always use more. There are several party s being planned and we could always use your help. If you would like to help, contact me, John Shearer. There is one last group of people many of you don't know about, our Funeral Dinner Committee. What they do for our members in their time of need is awesome. Thank You Theresa Howard. She is always looking for help whether it be food donation or your help. If interested, again contact me.
