To my fellow Elks! I am so excited to begin this journey for the next year with all of you. I

would like to thank you for your show of confidence in me by electing me

your 2017-2018 Exalted Ruler. Let's make this a year to remember.

Last year you saw many changes around the lodge to improve the space for

our members and our guests. This coming year we are hoping to add more

improvements to help make our Lodge shine. Some of the updating will

not be as noticeable, but will be done for the safety of our building.

Many of our officers are back, with a shuffle of positions for some and the

next step up for others. Two new faces to get to know are Dennis Joiner,

our Lecturing Knight and Eric Bennett, our Tiler. If you see them,

introduce yourself, welcome them and thank them for stepping up and

offering their time to keep our lodge thriving. All are committed to

volunteering their time and energy to make Roseville Lodge #2248

successful and an asset in our community.

As the Club Manager I got to know a lot of our members and have tried to

remember all of your names. I have to confess that remembering names is

not my strong suit. I will be wearing my name tag this year and I ask that

you do the same. I once had a button that read, "That's OK I do not

remember your name either".

I love this Lodge and believe it is the best in the district. We are planning

to add some social events having one each month. I hope you enjoyed the

St. Patrick Day party. Lorraine McIntyre and her committee did a great job.

We are going to have some Dinner/Dances, no particular theme just an

evening of good food and dancing. Please plan to join in the fun. If you

have any concerns or suggestions on how we can make our Lodge better for

you and your guests, please let me know. I promise you that the more you

come out and volunteer, the more you will enjoy your Lodge experience.

Again, thank you all for your support. Thank you to all the previous

Exalted Rulers for paving the way and availing us with their wisdom.

Let's go forward and make Lodge #2248 the best place to be in the State.

Let's have fun.

Fraternally ,

Elli Platz, Exalted Ruler
