EXALTED RULER

Greetings all,

We are in the final stretch with

our Queen candidate. We have had

some great fund raising events. Our

Dessert sales were wonderful. We

had so much support with the baking.

We almost had too many people

offering (but seriously, can you really

have too many desserts). The

Spaghetti dinner was fantastic. We

are still getting compliments on it.

Mexican night enjoyed the same success. The Golf

tournament was off the hook. That took a bit more to pull off

but it was worth it. We wanted to make sure that we maxed

out our entries and then put on an enjoyable tournament. Once

again we were bombarded with support. People just ask what

the next event is and they participate, work and come to

enjoy. It has been an absolute pleasure.

I am constantly humbled by the continued support of all

I participate in with our Elks. It feels good to be surrounded

with such good people. They want the Elks and our Queen

drive to be a success so they rally behind it and buy raffle

tickets and desserts and join in with whatever we do because

they want to see us succeed and feel glad inside for us when

we do. They are truly good!! A person told me once (no not

Earl this time) that you can tell the simple goodness in people

and the bad about them when you look inside them at how

they feel about others. When something good happens to

someone like if they buy a new car or get a great new job —

are others truly happy inside that the person is flourishing

enough to be able to have the shiny new car or get the great

new job (lets say a big fat raise) or are they really jealous and

covetous inside? On the same note, if something bad happens

to someone like say they wreck that new car or get fired from

their job, do they have real compassion for the unfortunate or

on the inside are they secretly happy that something bad

happened to someone? I have never forgotten it. When I

look at our Elks supporters I really feel that they are truly

good people, good friends and feel good inside that we are

successful.

Amidst of all going on with our Elks and our Queen

candidate I keep thinking about how nice it would be to have

her picture on the wall. I hear other Elks talk with pride

about the pictures on the wall and the support they gave the

candidate during her competition. Even though we are busy

raising money for our Elks as well as our Queen candidate

(remember, the first 2,500.00 of tickets sold by our candidate

Tess go direct to the Flower Festival Association and we have

already met this goal so now 65% of all funds raised come

right back to our own Elks) That is not all it takes to win.

The girls are judged by the Rose Bowl Judges who meet the

girls on the day of coronation. This first impression is

important and Tess meeting all of you in the lodge has helped

prepare her for this day. Later that night during the

Coronation, each candidate gives her speech and the judges

convene to make their decision. No matter the outcome, we

are proud of Tess and happy for her to represent our Lodge!

Sherri Giovanacci, Exalted Ruler

Salutations Lompoc Lodge,

Well here we in May and it’s going

to be a busy month, We just finished with

the ritual contest on the 1st. and I wish I

could report to you that we came in first

place but as you know I’m writing this in

April.

And then there is going to be the

convention in San Diego on the 6th and

on the same weekend there is Mothers

Day Holiday to celebrate so yes we are

going to be just a little busy.

Before going on I would like to say a special thank you the

Ladies Auxiliary I was real sorry to hear that they had no choice but

to have their last meeting, but it was understandable, with no one

joining the Ladies Auxiliary, the ladies had no other choice but to

close the doors, so Ladies thank you so much for your dedication and

the many years of work that you all have done for the lodge and for

the club, You’ll be missed.

It’s true what they say that you never know how good you have

it until you don’t have it anymore,

And while I’m on the subject of saying thank you, Has anyone

notice the work that has been done in the Parking lot behind the

Lodge,? I wish I could thank everyone who has been doing the work

but I only know of a few names John Larsen, Jim Martin, Bob

Manfrina and there’s more guys than that and I’m real sorry that I

don’t know who else has been out there so I can mention them but

I’m sure we can do something to say a big thank you, when they

declare it done. It’s real impressive guys Thank You.

And so I’m going to continue to keep my articles short, so you

can enjoy the other officers articles, and what other thing that Jerry

feels is important.

Your Leading Knight, Mario Santiago

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone is enjoying

Elkdom’s New Year. 2014 was a great

learning experience for the Officers and

each Officer has committed to fulfill the

next step.

Before I begin, I want to thank Fred

Duffey our Past Exhausted Ruler for his

hard work guiding us last year. Likewise,

of the Lecturing Knight and learn to

concentrate on being the Loyal Knight. The charge of the Loyal

Knight is an awesome charge to learn about. The motto of this

station is Justice. Learning to use wisdom, fairness and being just in

all my decisions will naturally make me a better person. I encourage

you to do the same. Use wisdom, fairness and be just in our your

decisions. We will find that our lives, our families and our Lodge

will be a benefit positively with our improvements in the area of

Justice.

By the time you read this article, I hope we as an Officer team

have made you proud. We all look forward to working with each you

to make Lompoc Lodge 2274 a place we call home and enjoy being

at.

With Brotherly Love. Your Esteemed Loyal Knight,

Kelly Montell Sedherry

The Lompoc Elks Lodge is pleased to announce the

selection of eight sophomores from Cabrillo and Lompoc

High Schools as recipients of their “Student of the Month”

honors. Lompoc High School selectees are Valerie Laufer,

Anahi Morelos, Benjamin Odon, and Niko Sapp. Cabrillo

High School honorees are Jaycee Jacobson, Ellery Wilkie,

Christopher Siefe, and Matthew Taber.

The Elks Student of the Month committee evaluated the

records of top-performing students from each high school who

were nominated by their respective faculties. Each nominee

prepared a application which listed achievements in 10 areas:

academic performance, leadership, community service,

athletics, student government, fine arts, clubs/organizations,

religious activities, part-time work, and any other are the

student considered important.

These Junior Students of the Month will be honored on

May 7th at a banquet hosted by the Elks Lodge.

Have you noticed the changes being made to the

parking lot in the back of the Lodge. These changes are

being made by the Trustees with the assistance of Lodge

Members.

However these changes could not have been made

without funds. Thank You to Dave Fort, Frank

Creager and Cheryl Hieronymus for your generous

donations.

We want to thank the membership, family and friends for

supporting Tess in her campaign for 2015 Lompoc Flower

Festival Queen. It takes $2500 to qualify as a candidate and

we were able to achieve this goal on 9 April. As Exalted

Ruler Sherri pointed out last month, that means that all funds

raised above the $2500 will be turned in as Queen Tickets for

Tess and then will come back to the Lodge at 65%. This

benefits all of us, so thank you for your continued support.

We have three events in May:

Saturday May 2 Carnitas Taco Dinner Lodge Ballroom

Thursday May 14 GUMBO Dinner Members Lounge

Sunday May 17 Horseshoe Tournament/BBQ

Campbell Ranch Hwy 246

We will continue the Wednesday Dessert Bar until June 10.

The drawing for the cord of wood will be Wednesday

June 3 during Family Night.

Coronation is June 20 in the Elks Ballroom.

Thanks also to the army of volunteers who have created

our spectacular dinners, donated baked goods, sold tickets,

supported the golf tournament and many many many more

tasks that have been instrumental in supporting Tess and our

fundraisers. Your support truly proves that ELKS CARE

ELKS SHARE!! Thanks again for your support of Tess and

our fund raisers.

Benevolently,

Tess Leach –- Elks 2274 Flower Festival Queen Candidate

PAGE 6 LOMPOC ELKS LODGE MAY 2015

I would like to once again thank the Happy Wanderers

Camping Club for their large donation to our Lodge’s

Veterans Fund. I know I have said this before but I will say

it again, without all the wonderful donations I get from the

members this program most likely would have ceased to exist,

so a big thank you to all of you.

Remember every third Friday we bring the Veterans from

the Convalescent Care Center to the Lodge for a Fish & Chips

Luncheon. I feel sure that if you help once, you will want to

help again. This months push is on the 15th of May.

I am still collecting aluminum cans and plastic bottles,

and I can Laminate your Elks Card and things up to 8X10

inches. Still just a dollar to our Veteran’s Fund.

I will leave you again with an old Chinese Proverb “A

smile will gain you ten more years of Life”.

See you at the Lodge.
