Moose Legionnaires Put On “Gameface” At Conference

No Matter What the Game, Moose Legionnaires Are Generally Ready to Play


Members from Virginia show support for their favorite team during the sports-themed weekend.

> Nearly 700 Moose Legionnaires and their ladies gathered in Santa Clara, CA last Nov. 2-5 for the 40th Annual International Moose Legion Ritual Competition & Conference. Those in attendance were treated to a weekend of sports-themed events and plenty of fun and fellowship. Moose Legionnaires also received a variety of information during training sessions, focus groups and the general membership meeting. The directors and members of Golden Spot Moose Legion #15 hosted the event, and they’re to be commended for doing an outstanding job!


Moose Legionnaries line up to make donations to the Flight 93 Memorial. The Moose Legion “$93 for 93” program is sweeping the fraternity with donations from all parts of Moosedom. The memorial will be built at the crash site of Flight 93 in southwest Pennsylvania, and will commemorate the valiant efforts of the passengers who overcame their hijackers and thwarted the terrorist plot to fly the airliner into central Washington DC on Sept. 11, 2001.
