2 Governor s Message Board of Officers Governor Emmett Bisnett Administrator Dennis FitzGerald Junior Governor Gary Mann I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. Thanks to all that have sponsored a new member into our lodge. A reminder that our MID year conference in Ocean City has changed to March 1st-4th this year and will be held at the Princess Royale in Ocean City, MD. Congratulations to John Simmons on your award as Wheaton Moose Member of the Year. It was certainly deserved for all you ve done around the lodge. Junior Past Governor Mike Long Prelate Patrick Rogers Treasurer Martin Seligh I would like to remind everyone that the kitchen should not be used as a cut through when it is in use.
