USO Dance this Saturday


ATTENNNNNNNNN-HUT!

This Saturday, August 1st, the Lodge is hosting an old-fashioned USO Dinner/Dance in the ballroom! Tickets are only $25 each. Come swap war stories, enjoy the Color Guard, an all-American Saturday night meatloaf dinner with a very special dessert, big band and swing music from Frank Hubbell and the Moonlighters, raffles and giveaways!

For every new deck of poker playing cards you bring to the event and donate, you’ll be entered into a special raffle for a WWII era poster! It doesn’t get any more All-American than this!

Please RSVP with Ella Mae Shroyer in person or by calling 305.279.2868 before July 29th.

Cash bar opens at 6:15pm, Color Guard at 7:00pm, dinner at 7:15pm, music and dancing from 8pm – midnight!

Attire for the evening is casual, but period attire from the 40’s and 50’s, especially military style uniforms, is highly encouraged.

All proceeds benefit the Miami Elks Lodge Veterans Charity Fund. General McArthur will be proud to see you there supporting the veterans. See you at the Lodge!

AT EASE!

HOPE - Helping Others Promotes Elkdom


Florida State Elks Association President Vincent Como has a three-part pin this year. You start with the van. Add the canoe topper by donating $50 to the Harry Anna Fund and get the trailer by sponsoring five or more new members.

Vince and his wife, Lisa will be visiting our District on August 28. Plan now to attend the festivities on Friday and Saturday, the 28th and 29th. It's going to be a lot of fun.
