A Note from the Chief Executive Officer
“The pages on the calendar turn fast, especially once school is in session, cooler temperatures of fall settle in and the lunch special includes a delicious bowl of soup. Despite the first frost of the season covering the grass, trees and rooftops at Mooseheart, our fraternity remains red hot. Membership in The Moose continues to grow for the 54th month in a row. Although we remain on pace for a 5th consecutive year of gains in active membership, it will take a focused effort during the months ahead to achieve that come April 30th. Leading the way with some incredible membership production numbers are Englewood, FL Lodge 1933, Anna Maria Island, FL Lodge 2188 and Venice, FL 1308. Also, Rockville, MD Lodge 1540, Smithfield, NC Lodge 1796 and St. Clairsville, OH Lodge 2504 have all doubled their annual membership quota for the entire year – fantastic!
Terry Seal, Sr. from North Port, FL Lodge 764 leads the way among all Sponsors with 140+ new members sponsored already this year. There are already 20+ Sponsors, who have signed 50 or more new members in the past six months! Congratulations to Terry and all our incredible sponsors!
We launched our newest member-focused program during the Milwaukee Convention in May and are already seeing great results. The Fraternal Recognition Program is an opportunity for all members to be honored for their key contributions to the overall success of The Moose Fraternity. To attain the first level of the program, you need to have achieved the following, since May 1, 2025 – sponsor one new member, donate to Moose Charities, attend a Lodge Orientation, log 10 volunteer hours at the lodge or as part of a Heart of the Community initiative and create a My Membership Record. Achieve these five things and you are in the great company of many other Preferred Members! For more details on this exciting new program, click on the Programs/Events Tab over on the left-hand side of this page.
Thank you for all your efforts to stay connected with your local community and for inviting your family, friends and co-workers to join The Moose. Let’s celebrate your accomplishments and share a few encouraging stories over a good bowl of chili! God Bless!
