The Maine Elks Association Roaming Elk Committee is pleased to report that on November 26, 2025, eight Brunswick Elks went to the Bath Elks lodge to enjoy a Pub Trivia Night and in the process re-captured Rocky – again. The Coastal District Trophy can now be captured from the Brunswick Elks Lodge #2043 at a future meeting or event (BTW, Brunswick’s next Chicken Shoot is on the 29th).
Brunswick members included (In no particular order) Alisha Barter, Emily Rollock, Sue O’Connor, Dickey Brigance, Sharon Belanger, Kathy Bonang, Timothy Jacobs and Tara Siggens.
As Brotherly Love is one of the four great principles of the Order, the Roaming Elk program was instituted in 2011 as a way for members to have fun traveling to another Lodge in their district to attend events or Lodge Meetings. For a Lodge to capture the trophy in their district, they must have five members of that Lodge travel to a Lodge that holds the Roaming Elk Trophy and attend an event at which they must participate or attend a Lodge meeting. They must remain at the Lodge for at least one hour to capture the trophy. If more than one Lodge attempts to capture the trophy at the same time, the Lodge that has the most members in attendance will take the trophy home. If the number of members is tied, then the Lodge that traveled the furthest will claim the trophy.
