It’s gonna be a great year!! See, I told you you’d hear that again! Do you people know what a great Corp of Oﬃcer’s you have? They’re amazing. I welcome you to Chair of the Exalted Ruler, whose mo o is Fidelity. Before I do anything else, I want to once again congratulate our Ritual Team for placing FIRST in our division. I couldn’t be prouder of them. If you haven’t already done so, let them know that you appreciate their hard work and how proud you are of them, I have.

Now, let’s talk about the obliga on you took when you became a member. You, probably like me, didn’t have a dang clue what the officer’s were saying when you were standing in front of them. But IF I were si ng at my office at the bar when you got out, I would have said to you, ‘You really need to come to an Ini a on and HEAR what we really say’. Have you done that? If not, please do, it’s really a very moving ceremony. At the sta on of Fidelity, the Exalted Ruler states, ‘… that the Members of this Lodge have deemed you worth of their confidence. I trust that you may con nue to merit their approval, and become true and faithful members among us.’ What is a true and faithful member? One who comes in on a Friday night and drinks? Yup, it helps our coffers. But what about stepping up and becoming a true and faithful member to the lodge? To con nue, ‘Our me upon the stage of ac on is but brief…’ People, you joined this lodge to help us be a be er place and to do our duty as members, to be charitable to all mankind. You can’t do that if you’re si ng at home or at the bar complaining about what’s wrong with this lodge. You’re me is brief. Help us make it be er by becoming involved now.

You may be asking how you can become more involved? Take a look at page two of this Elkhorn… right there to the le of this ar cle. You’ll see a list of the Lodge Officers. Below each, is a list of Commi ees that Officer has responsibility to either chair or find a volunteer that will step up and become a true and faithful member. Look at the second posi on under Allen’s Chair; Elks Na onal Founda on. Allen’s name is listed there. That is because last year Bernie Dennis held that posi on. Bernie is now the 5th Year Trustee and with that posi on came a much greater strain on his me. This required him to decline the Commi ee Chairmanship this year, leaving us our only op on of pu ng the name of the Chair Officer in there as a placeholder, making them Chairman for that Commi ee. What does that mean to you? We need a Chairman for that Commi ee! Take a second look at the en re list. Do you see something there that peeks your interest? Do you see where your name could replace the Chair Officer’s? No? How about just helping on one of these commi ee’s. Most of these folks could use some help. Contact that Officer and let them know you would like to help. But there are also other non‐commi ee places you can help. You know, unless you’re a NEW member and didn’t see my ar cles as Leading Knight, you can always help with Bingo. How about spending a couple of hours being a greeter or helping in the office? We could use some help in both of those areas. Call Dorothy and let her know that you have a li le free me and what days you can help. She also has other volunteer opportuni es, so look at your free me and talk to the Officer or Dorothy. No ma er when you volunteer, the folks in charge will appreciate the help and you’ll feel be er helping the lodge… it’s a great feeling by the way.

A lot of things happening this month at our lodge. Check the other Oﬃcer’s ar cles for more details on some of those. June 6th, our State Vice President, Sco Stephens, will visit our lodge. It would sure be nice if our seats were filled with members for this Tuesday mee ng. Mike Flynn, Inner Guard, will be presen ng a Flag Day Program on June 13th, which is an Open Mee ng, so bring your family and friends. June 18th, Tony Rodella, 4th Year Trustee, has a great BBQ planned for Fathers day. See, I told you we’d have fun, so come join us. I hope to see you guys at one of our Ini a ons this year, at the many events we have planned this month and/or talking to an Oﬃcer about ge ng more involved. It’s gonna be a great year for our lodge! Come help us with that.

Your Exalted Ruler, Buck Kuhns 2

Hello to everyone and welcome to the month of June. Our Elk year is in full swing, and now that Ritual Weekend is in the rearview mirror, we can all focus on the events that lie ahead. The Leading Knights Casino Night is on Saturday, June 3rd. The theme of this year’s event is Lights, Camera, Gamble. This is sure to be an excellent night out with family and friends. There will be plenty of gaming tables, wonderful appe zers, gi basket raﬄe prizes, and a photo booth. There may also be a few other surprises. Whether you frequent the Lodge on a regular basis ~ or~ a not so regular; I hope you plan to join us at the Casino Night! If you have not been to the Lodge lately, you may be interested to know that there is Line Dancing every Friday night from 7:30‐10:30pm, we also have Karaoke, and a great DJ that will play any music you would like to hear. There is also Karaoke every Sunday from 2:00‐6:00 pm. You will usually see Maria and myself, at some or all of these events. However, if these don’t interest you; tell me what does!

NEWS! JUNE 2017

VOCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS Available from California/Hawaii Elks Associa on (CHEA) Most of the following ar cle was copied (with permission) from the CHEA website. The ar cle contains informa on about an o en overlooked and under–used scholarship opportunity which is available to Elk members and the community at large.

CALIFORNIA‐HAWAII ELKS ASSOCIATION Voca onal Grant Applica on The program is open to anyone residing in California or Hawaii who is a ci zen of the United States of America and planning to pursue an eligible voca onal/technical (voc/tech) course resul ng in a cer ficate or two‐year degree and leading to employment opportuni es. The program is open to male and female applicants who will be judged on an equal basis. While gradua ng high school seniors may apply, it is not limited to high school students–in fact, it is open to all prospec ve students who require training or retraining to compete in the workplace. The Voca onal Grant is for one academic year, with an op on to renew for one addi onal academic year. This grant may be used only for usual and required costs of student’s course of study; that is, for tui on and fees, room and board (if living on campus) and books & supplies. Payment will be made to the school. Awards will be between $500 and $2,000 for an academic year depending on length of course. The defini on of an eligible program shall be comparable to that contained in the federal voca onal legisla on. That is defined as a two‐year or less voca onal/technical program culmina ng in a terminal Associate degree, diploma or cer ficate, but less than a baccalaureate program (Bachelor’s degree). Students planning to transfer to a four year school to pursue a Bachelor’s degree are not eligible to apply. Examples of courses approved recently are: 6 month Police Academy, 13 month Cosmetology, 3 month Electrical Lineman, 13 month Veterinary Technology, 2 year Fire Science. A student must plan to a end school on a full‐ me basis for a minimum of sixty days. An academic year is determined to be a minimum of nine (9) months (approximately 39 weeks) of con nuous full‐ me study. Payments may not be used to cover retroac ve charges and may only be applied to expenses in the academic year. Applica ons must be filed with the Scholarship Chairman, Exalted Ruler, or Secretary of the Elks Lodge having jurisdic on in the area of the student’s legal residence. An applica on may only be filed with one Lodge. Marie a Parkinson, Scholarship Chair 949‐510‐6971

Another BIG THANKS to all of you who brought in your filled "Purple Pigs" in April. Let me remind you how important it is to fill up your purple pig. The Purple Pig is the fundraising arm of the California‐ Hawaii Elks Associa on Major Project, Inc. (CHEMPI).

The guys at Broadway House were excited to receive the prepara ons for a ham dinner for Easter. As you can see from the picture they were ready to dig in to ham, potatoes, green beans, fresh fruit and beans. Dessert was not forgo en, they had their choice of cheesecake or chocolate cake.

The California‐Hawaii Elks have raised over $116.2 MILLION since 1950 to address the unmet needs of children with disabili es by developing a program of suppor ng services to aid these children at no cost to their families. Visit the website below and learn more and see a video that will warm your heart. h ps://chea‐elks.org/major‐project/purple‐pig/ Co‐Chairs, Flo Llanos and Paula Goetz

Santa Ana Elks Travel Club MYSTERY TRIP MAY 10, 2017

We are fortunate to have several new people join our club for this trip. I love the ques ons they ask the long me travelers. “When do we know where we a going? Will he tell us when we get on the bus?” And in unison the reply is NO! At mes, it is a mystery trip for Jim. Plan “B” is always available. This me we ar‐ rived at our des na on, Li le Italy in San Diego, forty five minutes early. We had me for an unscheduled stop at the newly restored 1936 San Diego Police Depart‐ ment turned into a Mall, for rest rooms. It is really a nice place complete with shopping, dining, jail cells and a police museum. And now the main a rac on, we were oﬀ to see our old friends at Filippi’s Pizza Gro o. Wai ng for us was a wonderful An ‐Pasta Salad. I could have filled up with that, but then who could pass up those terrific Pizzas that kept coming. We fin‐ ished up with trays of homemade Italian cookies. All the me we were entertained with live music and Italian Folk dancing. The final event was a bus tour of Li le Italy including a narra on from our guide on the history of Li le Italy before heading back to Santa Ana. Edie Tobin

Charity is alive and thriving at Lodge 794. Thanks to the eﬀorts of our Bingo volunteer staﬀ in making our weekly Bingo a "go‐to" event in the Santa Ana area, we have been able to accumulate some significant funds for worthy purposes. This new year we have already supported the Santa Ana Police's canine unit with a contribu on as well as funding a school project for homeless children ini ated by a grandson of one of our members which was reported last month in the Elkhorn In addi on we are con nuing our purchase program of student Chromebooks ini ated last year. This program replaces our long running dic onary purchase program and is geared to the more technology‐savy students of today. We have been able to again set aside $10,000 for the program this year. We have also been able to make a major contribu on to our local Wally Dietrich student awards program. We expect about 500 guests to see the awarding of of plaques, trophies and two scholarships in early June. There are several other programs in the pipeline and we are looking forward to a spectacular "elks care‐elks share" year. Inputs from our members are always welcome.
