The Ceremony of the Golden Ball

Robbie Ellis and Members of the Mighty 190 Moose Legionnaires performed the Moose Golden Ball Ceremony at the West Sacramento Moose Lodge home last weekend. The Golden Ball Ceremony is a traditional Moose fable dating back nearly 90 years, which describes how helping a child in need uplifts us all.

Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings!

New members get into action

It didn't take long for our new Lodge members Dave and Karen Johnson
(sponsored by Bo Sanders) to find a need and fix it! Thank you for
fixing our shed roof before the rainy season hits!

Taco Dinner and Fundraiser for the Christmas Basket Project

The annual Taco Night Fundraiser for the West Sacramento Christmas Basket Project was a great success raising almost $3000. The high point of the evening was the Gift Auction with Christy Jourdan playing auctioneer. Many thanks to Millie Pepitone for her generous donation of 18 gift baskets for the auction. Debbie Johnson and her volunteer crew have done a great job for our Lodge community service project.
