Moreno Valley Elks Lodge No. 2697 has a new home. After beingon Alessandro Boulevard near Frederick Street since 1985, the group is moving to a new building at Canyon Springs Plaza by Highway 60. "This new place will give us the opportunity to grow and be more involved with the community," said Luella McCabe, the group's Building Chairman and Past Exalted Ruler. Renovation of the new location took about 2 ½ years, but members said it's well worth the wait.

Hope this works for them.

It's hard to believe that a lodge this old would lose so many members or attract so few new members that it had to sell it's golf course. I don't know what kind of shape the course was in but if in decent shape then only mismanagment over the years could be the only reason its gone.

The Grand Lodge membership report shows they went from 295 to 104 members in five years. That's pretty disturbing.
