I am honored to announce that on WEDNESDAY November 6th, our Grand Exalted Ruler the Hon. Douglas A. Schiefer and First Lady of Elkdom, Julia, will make their official visit to Maine.
A reception and dinner will be held in their honor at the Bangor Elks Lodge #244 starting at 6:00 p.m. Information and costs will be sent out by the Lodge shortly, please make your reservations with them. All Lodges should have a representative attend this important event.
Gift presentations will follow his address, and following the presentations they will sign your dues card and present you with their pins.
Exalted Rulers or a designated appointee presenting gifts, are reminded to fill out a 3 x 5.00 index card, stating your Name, Lodge, Title, and what you are presenting. The card needs to be given to Scott Monroe, the master of ceremonies, when you arrive.
Attached to this email is GER Schiefer’s biography and their personal data sheet, it also contains their mailing address should you need to ship your gifts.
