Well good luck. But with an average age of 70, odds are slim they will make it. Tragic. Actually, most of California lodges average age is in the 70's. Only some are under 60.
Grass Valley lodge also has a fantastic web site that is a treasure trove of historic info.
If you get the opprotunity to visit, don't hesitate, stop in and check it out this historic lodge.
Just as I predicted, these boys got the gift of a lifetime. .. our 100 yr old crown jewel 'the elks Home' for a song. Borrowed the money to pay the 4.5 million selling price (appraised value $15mm) and two years later get advanced $10mm more!!. I guarantee they won't be putting all that money in the Home but mostly in their back pockets.
This article points out some crucial misinformation from GL. "We could never break even as the most residents we could have is 120", well these former consultants to the Elks Home knew better. They are at 185!!. Break even was well below that!! Tragic, sad and totally unnecessary.
Wonder how much this cost the Elks? It's not the IBPOE either that has gotten stung. Sad for the innocent kid who was killed as well as his family. Sometimes these rentals are just not worth it.
