Greetings Co-workers What a learning experience I have had so far this month. There is so much to learn being a Sr. Regent as it is for every new officer this year. Please remember that we ALL are learning the protocol of our job titles and please have patience with your new officers. Thank you to all of our ladies that stepped up to the plate on our steak night. Even more so to Sharon Loving who ended up being our cook when our normal cook couldn t be there. My steak was perfect Sharon!! You need to add fast order cook to your resume. Thank you to the Social Quarters Manager (Eddie Gibson) for thinking bout all of our mothers on Mothers Day. Great job sir!! When those of you that can, please come in and show your support for our Social Quarters manager, because without his support we have nothing. Eddie works so hard to find things for our lodge to do. We need to support our social quarters and manager. He has some great functions planned for us to enjoy each month. Did you make it to see Ron Moody on the 27th? If you didn t, you missed a great band. Ron is so down to earth and a great singer. Don t forget that District 9 is having a Chili Cook-off on June 2 at our lodge. It will be an all day event. If you have an award winning chili recipe then come on out and see if you have a winner. Check out the flyer for info on it. Last but not least, I have made Tracy Allen as our Moosette of the month. Tracy has stood beside me from the beginning of this new adventure as Sr. Regent by giving me advice and guidance when I need it. Thank you Tracy for your support!! See y all at the lodge. If you haven t been in awhile, we miss ya!! Senior Regent Theresa Willson TownHall Meeting Brothers and Co-workers, The TownHall Meetings are a place and time the men and women of our lodge get together so that everyone has access the same information.
