ELK'S CREED

Believe in the goodness in thyself as well as in others.

Protect childhood with tenderness, old age with respect, cherish with reverence the memory of those who have passed.

Observe faithfully the golden rule.

Enjoy the good things of earth. Keep within thee the Glorious shine of youth and remain always of good cheer.

Greetings to all members and friends of the ELKS

Spring is here and going to stay. School starting to wind down or finished up by June celebrating your kids accomplishments in there hard work done at school and finding a job start working making some pocket money or saving up for there futures. Enjoy the nice weather and getting ready for some summer getaways. Taking a little or long trip to see this beautiful country and state. The Elks National convention is coming up in Late June in Kansas City this year really close to us for a change 4 Hr drive versus 10 to 12 hours what a short trip. More time to taken the sights and sounds of KC a city, I really don't go to that often where I should explore there is a rich history in KC barbecue, small batch brewers and finally shopping lots of more stores to go to. June is a very good month to get married in a lot of marriages start in June.

Flag day is June 14 time to remember and respect the flag which ties us all together as Americans. Lincoln Lodge #80 is going to observe flag day at Antelope park in the band stand demonstrating America's flags represented in our history recognizing our Country as a separated country. Where America stands on our own merit for greater good improving our kids life better than we had. Improving our country to help others in need when they ask for it. On June 14 remember our flag not just a piece of fabric a representative of us, proud to be called an American Citizen. So as always stay active keep the EOG handy and just have Fun.

To All Lodge #80 Membership

The Covid-19 pandemic has truly disrupted and changed our lives in unprecedented ways. Places we used to visit or frequent have changed as we have. We all need to adjust to the new norm.

If you look around Lincoln, you can see the economic impact that we are currently experiencing. For the first time in my life I was left with a very unsettling feeling going to the grocery store and discovering shelf's that had no product on them or please limit yourself to 1, signs.

Even our lodge is struggling to make ends meet. We were given an increase in our property valuation, we were closed for several months, we did not have meals or events scheduled. Revenue that used to flow was nonexistent.

We had to do something. Since we had very limited resources coming in, we had to find ways to reduce costs. One way was to ask the County Tax commissioners to grant us a tax exemption, I am very sure that you have heard the term Quid Pro Quo. (This for that) So in exchange for a considerable savings (to all of us) we had to give up some hours of operation. We did not have to lay off any current employees we simply did not replace, again saving us a large chunk of money. We changed supply companies, soon cable companies, pest control companies and other things just to name a few.

We are making these changes to stay within our financial constraints and to be good Stewards of your money.

I appreciate your understanding. I am looking forward to seeing you all soon

Thanks, Harry
