Governor's August 2020 Message
Hello!

On Saturday, August 1, 2020 we resumed New Member Orientation. This first session after a long hiatus went well, and was attended by five new LOOM members and sixteen new WOTM co-workers. Special thanks to Chana Speir, our Senior Regent, for taking the lead on the orientation presentation. I had work commitments that I thought would preclude me from being at the orientation, but in the end I was able to be there. Next New Member Orientation is scheduled for Saturday, October 3, 2020 at 4:00 pm. Orientation is generally held on the first Saturday of each month. Due to conflicts with other activities, we are not planning to have Orientation in September.

Next LOOM meeting is on August 17, 2020 at 7:30 pm. LOOM meetings are generally held on the first and third Mondays of each month.

I would like to direct your attention to the next Florida Moose Association District 6 meeting at the Melbourne Moose Lodge on Sunday, August 9, 2020 at 12:00 pm. The new board of officers for FMA District 6 will be elected at this meeting.

Our Lodge continues to navigate local government coronavirus restrictions while working toward resuming normal operations. As always, exercising care and common sense with regard to cleanliness and distancing should help to minimize the impact of coronavirus.

We are adding some small-scale events in the Social Quarters and on the Patio to the calendar. The August 2020 Calendar is available on the moose2073.com website and is linked below. It is also posted on the Merritt Island Moose Lodge #2073 facebook page

https://moose2073.com/PDFs/Calendar_August_2020_0_.pdf

For Moose members that have not yet seen the newly remodeled Social Quarters and Patio, I invite you to come check it out! I'm sure you will be amazed by the changes!

Remodeling of the Hall continues in earnest. Looking forward to its completion and hosting meetings, parties and events once the time is right!

One Moose has passed!  For those who may not know, One Moose will merge much of the men's and women's organizational structures while preserving the traditional degrees of service that have been part of the Moose for for many years.  This is scheduled to go into effect on May 1st, 2021.

Thank you for your membership! Along with having fun, you are helping the children at Mooseheart, the seniors at Moosehaven, and our local community!

Fraternally yours,
John Wallace

Sr. Regent’s Message for August 2020:
Happy August! We had a very successful orientation on the first of the month and welcomed 16 new co-workers. On Sunday, August 9 at 12:00, the district meeting will be held at the Melbourne Moose Lodge. At this meeting, the Florida Moose Association, District 6, will elect their new board of officers. If you are a past regent, you are eligible to vote. Please consider coming to the meeting and casting your vote. Now that the men and women have joined forces in Florida, women can vote so we should vote.

As you may have noticed, the large meeting room space is under construction and not currently available to have meetings. We will still hold our regularly scheduled WOTM meetings on the second and fourth Tuesday at 6:30, but we are currently looking for an alternate location to meet. We can use the patio or social quarters, but on Tuesdays there is Trivia and Family Feud on alternating weeks, so we would like a space to meet and be able to hear each other easily. If you have an idea of a space or if you have a space that can be used by 15-20 co-workers, with appropriate space to social distance, please email me!!

If you are a new member and have questions, please do not hesitate to ask me. If you attended orientation, I hope you heard and felt the passion I have for our fraternity and supporting Mooseheart, Moosehaven, and our local community.

As always, I look forward to seeing you around the lodge.

Please stay healthy, social distance, and wear a mask when social distancing isn’t possible.

Moose Love,
Chana Speir
YOUR Senior Regent
