Derby Photo Album

new IOOF site!

Just noticed that the The Sovereign Grand Lodge website - ioof.org has been redesigned and it's got a much better professional look. It also has other information about the National programs and events of the IOOF.

Yeah! The Kentucky Derby was a success!

Everyone had a grand time at the Kentucky Derby party last week. The lodge even did okay on it's first try. Some folks got lucky with the horses and others did even better. This is sure to be an annual event for RVC#279. Those mint juleps will be sorely missed.

IMPORTANT!

This Saturday (5/9/09) there will be a reception for The Sovereign Grand Master of the State of New York, Raymond Holguin at 7:00pm. Please attend this very important meeting hosted by District Deputy Grand Master Stephen Janicek of Mineola Lodge.

St. Patricks Day Parade and Celebration!

Please join us this Saturday 3/21 for the annual St. Patrick's Day Celebration. We will be marching at 11am -- get details from Noble Grand Mike Zurrell.

Welcome Brother Mike McEnerney!

We had a good initiation yesterday and welcome new brother, Mike McEnerney to the lodge. We also added a new lodge to our links page (Elgin Lodge #12) in response to an e-mail from their Noble Grand, Jim Turner. I also updated our contact page with the latest officer roster. I expect a lot of great things in 2009, beginning with the planning for our St. Patrick's Day Celebration and The Kentucky Derby Day Project. Remember, attend meetings and get involved! It's what you make of it!
