Happy Valentine's Day!!!
We would like CONGRATULATE Exalted Ruler Brad for putting together
and pulling off a great New Years Eve on short notice and short
handed!!! If you weren't there you missed a wonderful night
at a reasonable price. The entertainment was good and all night
I heard raves about the food!!!
A BIG THANK YOU to Art Brannick for kicking
butt and finding a way to get the broken automatic flusher for
the mens urinal covered under warranty. That is a huge savings
and the Lodge appreciates your efforts!!!
We want to THANK our 2 new Trustees, Mike Sarno
and Jeff Allegar, for stepping up and making a difference so
quickly. Mike's sales background has been instrumental in helping
land more bookings in the past few months and bookings is an
area we really needed to improve in! Jeff's background in HVAC
and refrigeration has already been put to use with getting the
kitchen walk-in refrigerator running properly and the heating/cooling
unit at the South end of the building needed a new fuse, thanks
for saving us a service call on these items. Jeff is also going
to help us look into better ways to regulate and secure the
thermostats which should help reduce the number of incidents
where the thermostats are improperly set.
Come down to YOUR Lodge on Super Bowl Sunday
- February 7, 2010. It is always a great time with friends,
great food and cheap libations! Hopefully, we will have the
famous buffalo wings from Chef Bodnar made with the secret Gravelle
family buffalo wing sauce…a crowd favorite for sure.
If you know someone planning an event that the
Elks might be able to assist with please pass along our booking
phone number: (908) 788-8203. We have been getting more calls
recently to rent the hall and hopefully these will turn in to
rentals in the near future. We are also reviewing our pricing
so that we will be more competitive as many places around us
have really cut back their pricing during these times to drive
their business.
Since this Lodge is EVERY members Lodge we all
need to look out for the Lodges best interest. If you come into
the Lodge and notice it is exceptionally COOL in the Summer
or exceptionally HOT in the Winter, please check the thermostats.
Please be mindful of YOUR Lodge.
REMEMBER - We are always looking for new and
fun ideas to make the Lodge more enjoyable and to get the membership
involved. Send us an email or drop us a note in our mailboxes
at the Lodge with your contact information. Also, if you have
an idea for an event that you would like to see the Lodge hold
please drop us a note.
