BPOElks

if they have been on probation for three years.. then what the hell has the trustees been doing all that time?

tragic.. building like this but the lodge is gone!!

suspended again. 1100 members?

Now why would the leadership of any lodge sell their building without requesting permission from GL? And this is a lodge that is 115 years old? SMH If true, that's just a perfect illustration how far this organization has fallen. We do not seem to be attracting people with business and administration abilities or if we do then they are not willing to take on leadership responsibilities.

don't most kids have ipads now and words can be looked up online?

Most kids in SOME AREAS have access to computers or tablets, yes -- but not all. I've had members of several Lodges tell me that the Dictionary program is a vitally important one for many students. What we are giving them is a small, inexpensive paperback dictionary. But when we tell them that it's THEIR book -- and suggest that they write their name inside the front cover -- we often have children burst into tears because they've never owned a book of their own before. This isn't a program to look down our noses at. It's a program that help students with their studies, boosts their self-esteem, and wins life-long friends for the Elks.
