Moose Lodge 49 / WOTM Chapter 345 Home

On behalf of the Board of Officers I want to wish all of you a Happy and safe New Years.. Together we will get through this!

If the Lodge is going to close this winter, we post this notice on channel 4,6,and 7/5

Our roof top heating/air conditioning unit that serves the social quarters has broken down and cannot be repaired because of its age. The Lodge will be doing fund raising. We are getting bids but a unit could cost as much as $20,000. We need your help and this is not only air conditioning but heating. Donations are greatly appreciated.

We need volunteers! The Board of Officers in both the men and women work hard to make your experience at the lodge a pleasant one. Both at bingo and doing work around the lodge. Maybe a few hours a week or when we need you. Call Bob Pfeiffer at 414 281-4444 for more details.

We encourage you to give us your e-mail address so that we can keep you informed about what is happening at the lodge.

We need volunteers to help with bingo on Sunday. Does not have to be every Sunday. The hours are 1 2 to 4. Call the Lodge for more information.

If you want to know what is going on in the lodge or chapter, attend their meetings. The discussion is lively but informative. We value your input. Membership meeting are on the second and fourth Mondays at 7 pm.

Be safe, see you at the Lodge! Bob Pfeiffer, administrator

Try our new meals on Saturdays. While we started out
slow business has been improving. We are still limited on seating because of Covid. We
are starting various fund raisers to help with the cost of the HVAC we are going to have to do. So
help out when you can. Support the lodge when you can, try something new and play
bingo. Every little bit helps.

Bob Owen
Past governor

Happy New Year Co-workers! Chapter 345 has a LIFE MEMBERSHIP INCENTIVE for all members in good standing. With a $25 donation to Chapter 345*, our Recorder will process your Life Membership for one-half the current Moose International fee*. Chapter funds are used to match your payment, because the entire amount must be submitted to International. After processing, International will return the chapter funds. This is a first-come-first-served opportunity as chapter funds are limited. This incentive expires in early March. Attend a chapter meeting or call 281-4444 for more details. Congratulations to our new LIFE MEMBERS: Dori De Lone, Marilyn Pietrzak, Pat Pietrzak, and Susan Behling! As a Life Member, you will never pay dues again, ever. Select the Recorder's Message below for details.

Nominations are sought for the ELECTION OF OFFICERS for the 2021 fiscal year. Board of Officer positions up for elections are: SENIOR REGENT, SECRETARY, and TREASURER. Our election campaign begins at 7PM on January 25. Voting occurs at the second meeting in March. Let me know if you want to run for office or have convinced a co-worker to run. Immediately following the election of officers, willing co-workers will be appointed to Chapter Development Committees, the appointed offices of Guide and Assistant Guide, and appointments to Committees for Application Review, Audit, and Sunshine.

On January 20 at 6:30 PM, Jr. Graduate Regent/Chairwoman Trudi Groth and her committee will conduct The WAYS & MEANS COMMITTEE ACTIVITY NIGHT. Everyone is cordially invited to attend this informative presentation. Bring family and friends, people you know who have the potential to become members. I encourage all new members to accompany your sponsors, and see me for your orientation packet. Refreshments will be served after the meeting.

On January 30, 2021, celebrate the 107TH ANNIVERSARY of LODGE 49. Enjoy baked chicken dinner, a cash raffle, a very exciting basket raffle, and music. Hopefully the City of Milwaukee will lift the ban on dancing by then. Call the lodge at 281-4444 to reserve your raffle tickets and a dinner table. Lodge 49 continues to make decisions for the health and well-being of all members. Volunteers work tirelessly to ensure our safety-sanitizing, physical distancing, and face mask requirements-to provide safe and enjoyable experiences.

Thank you for your continued membership and support for Chapter 345 fundraisers. Thanks to dedicated members like you, Chapter 345 continues to support our Mooseheart children and Moosehaven senior members. Thank you VOLUNTEERS for your continued efforts. Chapter 345 seeks a volunteer piano player willing to play our small organ. Volunteers are welcome for half days, even one to two hours a month, at chapter meetings on the second and fourth Mondays, and the WOTM bingo and bake sale every third Sunday of the month. Invite your bingo-playing buddies; games start at Noon on Sundays. This new year brings new opportunities that the chapter could pursue with more volunteers. If you are willing and able, please contact Juanita; leave your name and number at 414-321-6806.

If you change your name, address, phone number, or have an issue with your membership card,
contact Moose Lodge 49 at 414-281-4444. Please leave a message if no one answers. Thank you.
