Message from the Governor
My Brothers & Sisters,
WOW!!! My first month as your “Governor” has
been great. I still remember when I first walked into this
lodge just 4 years ago, and all I can say is I’m glad I did.
I’ve met so many wonderful people and hope to continue
meeting more in the years to come.
I want to first thank everyone for all of your support, and hope I
can continue to lead our lodge to great expectations. Joe, you left me with
some pretty big shoes to fill, but I think with the help of my fellow Brothers
& Sisters I will continue on with the success that you had.
In Closing I am very excited about the upcoming year and the
many new things we can do to help out Mooseheart and Mooseheaven,
as well as our very own community.
See you at the Lodge

BEYOND THE SOCIAL QUARTER
WHAT YOU MAY HAVE MISSED
What a May!!! We started off this month strong with a great “Cinco de
Mayo” party. It was hosted by Louie and Virginia. Also lending a hand
was the 2nd half of the Cantina Girl’s -- Terri. Special thanks to Ella for
working the Margarita station. The dance floor was packed as well as the
lodge as everyone enjoyed the sounds of Two Dogs. ‘Great job guys! The
night was a huge success. Thank you.
Kudos to Debi and all her Ladies for their monthly breakfast and bake sale.
Also, Irene (twice), Susan with Doni & Terri and Marion made “dining at
the lodge on Thursday nights,” the thing to do.
(continued on page 3)
Message from the Senior RegentWhat a great month! May was full of fun events &
meals. Thank you so much to Irene, Doni & Terri, and
Marion for the Thursday night dinners. You are all so
appreciated! Thank you to Debi and her crew for the
bake sale & breakfast -- always a great time! So much
fun was had at Terri's Membership/Retention function.
Meatball sandwiches & karaoke...always a great
combo! Thank you to Terri & her crew and to Danae & Lisa for the
karaoke! Big thanks to the men for a wonderful Mother's Day breakfast.
I personally enjoyed being a part of the Moose Rider's "Blessing of the
Bikes". It was such a positive experience. So much more...always great
dinners and breakfasts by the men & Moose Riders.
June is set to be as busy as May! I am looking forward to the Moose
Riders trip to Calico Ghost Town on the 2nd, Sally's Publicity function
on the 9th and the Sweetheart ball on the 16th. Check the calendar for all
the breakfasts & dinners. The women will be hosting a breakfast for
Father's Day. Come celebrate with your families. Lots of delicious food
coming this month! Check out the basket of great items donated by Teena
Marie. It will be raffled off on Father's Day. Get your tickets now!! The
women will be hosting a memorial for Barbara Pina on the 24th in
Glendale. Hope to see many of you there. I wish a safe and successful
trip to all who plan to attend the International Moose Convention in Tampa.
Thank you in advance for representing Reseda!
Congratulations to Van Nuys High School student, Kenji Kang, for
receiving the R. Robert Dale Scholarship from Moose International.
Christie and I were honored to present the award, at the school's Senior
Awards Night, to this deserving young man . Proud mom Eileen is a new
member of the WOTM. Congrats Eileen!
Please attend our meetings on the 5th & 19th. ‘Would love to see you

Message From the Moose Riders PresidentGreetings to all Moose Riders and Non-Riders,
Wow, another great month. The dinner on May 11thwas a great success. Thank you to all who participated.Also, a Big Thanks to Pastor Gordon for leading us in ourfirst annual International Blessing of the Bikes on May
19th. This is a nationwide event and it’s the 8th year that MooseInternational has sponsored the ocassion. The Moose Riders followedthe Blessing of the Bikes with a Porker Run that raised money forthe Children’s Charities.
The Moose Riders want to invite everyone to our Calico Ghost Townride on Saturday June 2nd (see flyer on page 14). Eddie is looking into therental of a passenger van to transport those of you who either do notride bikes or simply want to leave the driving to someone else. It’s ourway of making everyone feel welcome! Look for a sign-up sheet postedin the lodge. Those opting for the van, we’re asking for a $25.00 perperson contribution. This will cover the cost of the renta l as we l l asthe expense for gasoline. Plan to join us for this day of “Fe l lowship& Western Adventure.” Also, look forward to more Moose Riderevents in the future.
Special Announcement: We’ve changed our monthly meeting day to thefourth Tuesday of every month. So, mark your calendar for Tuesday,June 26th.
Ride to Live, live to Ride.
Sincerely,Steve Harrison

LOCAL STUDENT EARNS
MOOSE SCHOLARSHIP
Kenji Kang, a graduating senior at Van Nuys High School, is the 2012
recepient of Moose International’s R. Robert Dale Scholarship.
Representing our Lodge at the presentation ceremony are Sr. Regent, Susan
Soules (left) and Jr. Regent, Christie Steele (right). We congratuate this fine
young man and wish him the best as he pursues his college education.
This Month’s Questions:
1. What is your favorite main course for dinner?
2. Should sports teams be banned from using Native
American nicknames? (yes or no)
Moose Poll is a new addition to the Moose Call. Its purpose is to survey the
membership on various topics and issues. The results are sure to be inform-
ative. Most important, your response will be anonymous -- I promise!
Those of you who have an e-mail account should send your response to:
phi179@sbcglobal.net. If you do not have an internet connection. submit
your answer to one of the bartenders in the Social Quarters. They will place
your opinion in a box behind the counter. Please limit your participation
to one response only for each question. Results will be published in the
following month’s Moose Call.
Thank you in advance for participating. This promises to be interesting.

A Message from the Editor
The lodge needs an “Assistant” Editor for the Moose Call.
Are there any volunteers? My free time is not as flexible
as it used to be. My folks live in Las Vegas, Nevada and
both are struggling with heath issues. As a result, I find
myself attending to family matters that require increased
responsibilities with each passing week and month.
I consider editing the Moose Call a “labor of love” and the the last thing
I want to do is miss a deadline and disappoint fellow members.
Last month, my message centered on transitions. In order for our lodge
to have continuity, we need people to be ready to step in when needed.
Without back-up plans, we risk losing momentum.
If you have a computer and enjoy writing, your lodge needs you. Contact me
at 818-353-5349 and we can discuss the publishing process.
For those of you who wish to submit articles for the July issue, the deadline
is Monday, June 18th. Send material to: phi179@sbcglobal.net. Also, all
changes made to the calendar after the planning meeting must be approved
by either the Governor or Sr. Regent and immediately communicated to me.
Looking forward,
Mitch “5-17” Lane
