Celebrating 27 years of service to our Community

Award Winning Publication

Summer is ending, fall is upon us

work that has been done around the

Lodge.

The outside sign is finally complete

I would like to extend my

sympathies to Sheila Hill and her family

on the passing of Charlie, who was a

charter member of this Lodge and a very

respected member.

The State President’s visitation went

wonderfully and I would like to thank

all who helped make it a success,

without these volunteers we would not

have been able to accomplish this. I

would especially like to thank Tom

Coleman, Zuzuana Korner, Allison

Allison and Ray Warren for the help

they gave our new chef that night.

On that note, I would like all of you

who have not had the opportunity to

meet her and try her cooking to stop by,

say hello, and enjoy lunch or dinner. Her

name is Tes Smith and she is doing

lunches Wednesday thru Saturday from

12P.M. till 2 P.M. and dinners

Wednesday thru Saturday and breakfast

on Sunday morning.

A big thanks to Peggy Bertoli for all

the time she puts into the office and to

Loretta for being there when Peggy had

knee surgery.

Please check out our new website at

Elks2723.com, Tony Sperduti has been

working very hard on this and would

appreciate any insight you give for

improvement and also pictures to post.

Make sure to continue reading the

weekly updates so you can see what is

happening in the Lodge.

Don’t forget Port Orange Family

Days October 3 to 6, 2013, we will be

again and will be needing volunteers to

man it.

Exalted Ruler

On Thursday, September 19th, a group from our lodge took a bus trip to the Florida Elks Youth Camp (FEYC) in Umatilla,

FL. The Eustis Lodge opened their arms to make us feel welcome and gave us a great tour of the camp.

The Florida Elks Youth Camp is dedicated to enriching the lives of children from the state of Florida. FEYC is located on

405 acres of rolling hills, forests, lakes and open space and is accredited by the American Camping Association. The camp is

recertified every three years to assure compliance and a safe camping environment for children. The camp is available to all

children of Florida and offers them countless opportunities in each camper’s mental, physical and social growth. This camp

has become one of the finest of its kind in the country.

We had the privilege of having the Florida State President, Brian Burns and his wife, Mary Kay visit with us on September 7, 2013. During this visit, George Brennan was presented by President Burns, the East Central District-Elk of the Year award.

Following is an excerpt from the letter written by Exalted Ruler, Jerry recommending George for this Special Recognition Award.

George was initiated into Port Orange Elks Lodge 2723 on October 18, 2005. Since that time, he’s been a Trustee and also worked on the Bingo Committee for a few years. In addition, he was and still is on the work detail. He is always there for Meals-on-Wheels every holiday. On August 3, 2010, he was accepted and given an Honorable Life Membership. In work detail, most of his work is behind the scene and most members don’t see all the work that he does, but those who do, know George to always be willing to give a helping hand no matter what time of day or night. He is always there for anyone who needs him. When George enters the Lodge, within five minutes, there is someone asking him to do something and he willingly does it no matter what the request is. Also, when he sees something that needs to be done, he does it. He doesn’t have to be asked. When different Elk members need volunteers for a project of some sore, George is the first name that comes to their mind. He goes way above and beyond helping people. George is a good and faithful Elk and he truly loves his Lodge.

Congratulations George! Well Deserved!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Our new cook, Tes, is doing a wonder-

ful job and the food is excellent. With

more of our member coming in for din-

ner, it has become necessary to ask for

volunteers to help with serving and in

the kitchen. As all of you know, getting

meals to the table in a timely manner is

very important. I am not asking some-

one to come in every week, but if you

could just give us one day a month, it

would be a tremendous help. We need

your support to keep the kitchen going.

We still serve meals every Thursday,

Friday and Saturday evenings and on

Sunday mornings, so any day you can

help would be welcomed. There will be

a list on the board near the kitchen.

Please do what you can to help.

Thanks again. Jerry Peterson

September, two hundred twenty six years ago, a group of delegates from the twelve states drafted and

signed the Constitution and presented it to the thirteen states for ratification in 1787.

It was in America that the Founding Fathers under the direction of Gen. George Washington assembled the

28 great ideas that produced the dynamic success formula which proved such a sensational blessing to modern

man.

Of course, we should not forget that it took the Founders 180 years (1607-1787) to put it all together. Numer-

ous mistakes were made along the way. Never less when they finally put the new charter into operation,

George Washington was able to write after only two years in practice…

“The United States enjoy a scene of prosperity and tranquility

under the new government that could hardly been hoped for.”

Not only had it changed the United States, but within a few years it aroused the admiration of the whole

world. The American Revolutionary War did not commence as a war for independence but was originally de-

signed to protect the rights of the people from the arrogant oppression of the tyrannical king. By the spring of

1776, it was becoming apparent that a complete separation from Great Britain was the only solution.

The Constitution was written and ratified by an “act of the whole American people,” as Thomas Jefferson

declared in 1802. It’s purpose is to, “Secure the blessings of Liberty to our posterity.” To secure that liberty,

“governments were instituted among men”, not over them and “derived their just powers from the consent of

the governed.”

Our Founders gave us a government dependent upon our consent, not the will of the Supreme Court, the

Congress, or the President. Our Founders knew that since Liberty belonged to us, we would be the only ones

suited to determine when, “any form of government became destructive of those ends.”
