2026 International Moose Convention | Oklahoma City

Home | Preliminary Schedule | Registration | Housing | Travel | Events/Things To Do

Join us in Oklahoma City from June 30th – July 3rd, 2026 for the 138th International Moose Convention!

Named one of the Best Places to Visit by Southern Living magazine, Oklahoma City, also known as OKC, offers all of the culture, cuisine, attractions and amenities you’d expect in a modern metropolis. And with its rugged Western past, working stockyards and title as “Horse Show Capital of the World,” it’s rich in cowboy culture, as well.

Merely blocks away from the convention center, Industrial-chic Bricktown is a lively entertainment district, with repurposed warehouse spaces home to restaurants, piano lounges and chic wine bars. Yet despite its vibrant nightlife, you cannot visit OKC without paying your respects at the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum, which honors the victims, survivors and rescuers of the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. From family fun to historic sites to outdoor adventures you won’t find anywhere else, Oklahoma City has plenty of hustle without all the hassle.

Registration and housing now open!

Delegates to the 137th Meeting of The Moose in Milwaukee, Wisconsin passed all four voting categories of amendments to The Moose General Laws in a convincing fashion this past weekend. Changes included:

  • a new stipulation that all qualified family members, including a spouse, over the age of 21, shall be considered a prospective member and limited to two visits before making application for membership;
  • a nominee for Administrator must be an active member of the Lodge for at least six (6) months immediately preceding the date of appointment/election;
  • electronic social media is added to prohibited campaigning tactics;
  • a Special Meeting cannot be incorporated into a Lodge General Membership meeting and must be held as a separate meeting;
  • and an approved dispensation is required for all lodge community service and charitable fundraising events.

All changes will go into effect on August 1, 2025.

New 2026 Race Schedule Released

Home | Meet Ross Chastain | Race Schedule & Dispensations | Why Advertise with NASCAR

Ross Chastain will once again be in the red and black Moose Fraternity No. 1 Chevrolet during four races this upcoming season. He will have the Moose logos on his car and fire suit during the rest of the season as well.

This year marks the seventh Cup Series season the Fraternity has paired with Chastain on the track while using the 33-year-old, Alva, Florida native in membership and charity initiatives away from the track.

“It has been so fun to have a continued relationship with the Moose Fraternity,” said Chastain who is a member of Tice and Shores, Florida, Lodge 1287.

“Several of the members have become like family which is unique when it comes to a partnership. Not only do I have the opportunity to meet members but it’s fun to talk to people about becoming a member of the fraternity. It’s a passionate group that cares about their community and making it a better place.”

“We really appreciate the relationships we have built with Ross and the Trackhouse Racing family these past few years and are thrilled to continue this journey together through 2026. Having Ross as a member and ambassador for the Moose Fraternity is phenomenal. Just like on the track, when he puts on the Moose hat, you can expect the unexpected to happen,” said Moose International CEO Scott Hart.

The Moose Chevrolet was at the center of perhaps one of the most dramatic moments in recent NASCAR history. In October 2022, the penultimate race of the season, Chastain rode the Martinsville Speedway walls on the final two corners to pass three cars and gain entry into the Championship 4 season finale the next weekend at Phoenix Raceway in Avondale, Arizona.

The maneuver nicknamed the “Hail Melon” drew global praise and recognition as the video eclipsed more than 225 million views and the event garnered 1.2B impressions.

The No. 1 Moose Fraternity Chevrolet was the top-selling diecast in 2022 according to Lionel Racing.

Trackhouse and Chastain will continue to amplify the message of the Moose Fraternity to race fans through social media content and select events at lodges around the country in 2026.

Moose Membership Mobile App is Now Live!

The Moose Membership Mobile App is live on both Google Play and the Apple App Store. Members can now download the app for free using their iPhones or any android phone (i.e. Samsung, Google Pixel, Motorola, etc.). The app includes the new electronic Moose membership card, your Moose membership record, the lodge locator, the General Laws of the Fraternity, as well as instant access to pay dues or sign a new member. Members should use their existing Moose “My Membership Record” user name and password to log in, or register in the app, if they don’t have a “My Membership Record” login.

This document gives information on how to download the app on nearly any phone.

If you are viewing this message on a phone or tablet, the links below will take you directly to the Moose Membership app. If you are viewing this from a computer, it will take you to an information page, but you will not be able to load the app to your phone.

Note: Administrators, volunteers and other individuals tasked with checking Moose membership cards should treat the new electronic membership card the same as the printed card. The membership expiration date is in the same location as on the printed card. The electronic card is almost identical to the printed card, however, if a member is marked as a Valued Veteran, the card will carry the VV design. Also, the electronic card does NOT have a magnetic strip, but rather a QR code instead, so members will still need to carry their printed card if their lodge has a mag strip reader on the entrance door that has not yet been upgraded with a QR code reader.

Diversity Statement

The Moose Fraternity is committed to cultivating and preserving a culture of inclusion and connectedness. We will only be able to grow today as an organization, and provide meaningful help to others, with a diverse group of members, employees and partners that are representative of the communities and individuals which we serve.

Therefore, we do not discriminate against any member, potential member, employee or applicant for employment based on race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status.
