BINGO ON NEW YEARS DAY!!!!

Yes, we had a nice group of players who enjoyed 3 hours of Bingo and Pulltabs. They were also treated to FREE Chili and Hotdogs. As well as Popcorn.

Boyan Encheff is our Bingo Chairman. He took over this year and so far has done a wonderful job. He has been very active in the Lodge and Club for many years. And I think most of you know him!!!
He is a PER, PPDGER and has more titles than I can name.

This is the regular Pull Tab group. From the left, Carl W., Mac M., Glen P. (standing), Gordie F. and Wilbur S.
We also have Rich H., Frank H., Jerry S. and others. We'll catch up with them later.

The Ramp is here and ready for you.

It's in the hallway leading to the dining room.
If you have the need for it please use it. The Dining room is beautiful. Come and enjoy.

Holiday Fun at your Elks. Jack and Bo entertained the lunch crowd on Dec. 16th with Christmas Carols and more. Lots of people joined in the singing. Karaoke style, see the TV?
Oh What Fun We Had......in a one horse open....

Karaokee singer Alice with friend Don.
She did a real good bit of singing-a-long on Sat. Dec. 20 with Don.
Alice's hubby was just watching, didn't get his name, sorry.

Door Greeters

Saturday December 20, 2003 was Joannie, someone we all know if we are here on Saturdays.
She was our first lady to become an Elk.
Thanks Joannie, you have been a inspiration for many of our ladies! Keep up the good work.

Our Flag, the Symbol of our Order

Hope the flag isn't missing. Sometimes it is. BUT IT ALWAYS COMES BACK!

Dottie, our hostess. If you have dined in the dining room I am sure that you know her. She has been with us for a few years now can always seat your group quickly and effeciently. She always has a smile for you too!

Lois is also a hostess. She will be there for you too, always, when Dottie is not here. Come in and enjoy!!!

Need a gift for someone??


Think about giving an Elks Gift Certificate. You can get them in any amounts. It makes it easier for you and it helps our Club.
Thanks!!

Guess what Mitzi is doing. Making out Gift Certificates!
They do make good gifts for your friends here. Keep 'em mind for the Holidays.

Every Saturday nite at 5:30 someone wins. Sign the "book" (Members Only) during the week and come in Sat. nite and WIN SOME & SPEND SOME!!

John H. was the winner!!! Don V. is handing him the $$$$. A big pot cuz there was not a drawing last Saturday because of the Holidays.
