Letter From the Exalted Ruler























Fellow Elks,
I have just returned from the Natl Convention and it was a great turn-
out. The Natl average for ENF donations was up tremendously and ex-
ceeded our goals. Membership loss and the lack of participation were the
primary focus for this year. I was able to spend a lot of time with other
Oklahoma Elks discussing the good and bad of our area. Broken Arrow
lodge had nearly 30 members in attendance. Sapulpa and Pawhuska trailed
just under that. Pawhuska Ritual team represented our state and per-
formed with near perfection.
I would like to encourage our members to become more active with
their participation. There are so many good and beneficial things we could
accomplish if we had more than just a couple of members doing almost eve-
rything. Dont forget about our upcoming events listed on page 3. Plus we
still have our Pitch tournaments and dinners on Wednesday nights at 6:30
as well as Steak Night on Fridays at 6:30 followed by Lucky Lady drawing.
Drop in and see us and bring a friend!

Exalted Ruler
Toby Moreland

Worry is a total waste of time. It doesnt
change anything! All it does is steal your joy

ENF REPORT

So far we are doing fairly well towards our
goal of $4.50 per capita to qualify for the
Gratitude Grant from the
Elks Natl Foundation.
I would like to ask the members if they could
did a little deeper to make sure that we quali-
fy for this grant again as it is a WIN WIN for
the lodge and the recipients.
Thank you for what you have done so far and
also for any other help you can give.
