The Loyal Order of the Moose Lodge 2199 voted on March 30, 2017, to be a part of the pilot Program of Moose

as follows: Governor; John Hilovsky, Junior Governor; John DeFrank, Junior Past Governor; Bob Camperlino, New
Position Secretary; John Masters, Treasurer; Robert Fenimore. Under the new pilot program of Company Store there will
no longer be an Administrator, he will be replaced by the Operations Manager employed by Moose International, this
position will be filled on May 4, 2017. The Prelate Position is now called "Chaplin" appointed by the Governor, and will
be Bill Merry. Position of Trustee: will no longer be an elected position and those individuals serving as 2 and 3-year
Trustee may remain on the board until the expiration of their term. Our only Trustee will be Ron Ranck. This year will
be a learning experience by the New Board of Officers and Moose International as many of the previous responsibilities
performed by the board will now be the responsibility of the Operations Manager. The Board shall continue to conduct 2
monthly Lodge Membership Meetings, 2 Board of Officers' Meetings, and 1 Joint Meeting with the Women of the Moose,

A WORD FROM OUR SENIOR REGENT
Hi, my name is Joellen Thompson. I am your new Sr. Regent for the upcoming year. I want to first thank all of those who
supported me during the election process and assure you that I will do what is best for our Chapter and the entire
membership. Second let’s have fun this year as we move forward with the functions and projects that are planned for the
upcoming year. And finally, a big thanks to all the co-workers who have agreed to be committee chairman. With
everyone’s help I know our year will be successful in both areas of fund raising and increasing membership. Remember,
A burden that is heavy to one is borne lightly by many. Our Chapter door is always open, so stop in and say Hi. A
stranger is a friend we haven’t met yet.
Sr. Regent,
Jo
Chapter News
As a chapter, we are looking to become involved in community service projects. Our community service chairperson
Barbara Ranck collects food for the Cape Coral Caring Center all year long. The box is placed in the front of the lodge.
Your donations are very much appreciated. The Lee County Foundation provided us with some parameters to guide us
with our yearly scholarships. The Women of the Moose gave out $3,000.00 in scholarships this year. The foundation has
asked our help with their mentor program. The foundation provides scholarships to area students. One of the requirements
of the program is that the students need mentors. Cape Coral is in dire need of women willing to mentor high school
students. I (Nancy Klumpp) became a mentor three years ago. It does not take much of your time, a half of an hour twice a
month to meet your student. It is a very rewarding program for both the mentor and the mentee. There are 6 students right
now needing mentors. If anyone is interested please contact Nancy at [email protected]
