Exalted Ruler's Message
Welcome To Watertown Lodge #496
June 2025
Greetings, everyone. Summer seems to be getting off to a slow start. Hopefully the sun will start shining and the weather will be improving.
Many of us attended the state conference at the Villa Roma resort in the Catskills. It was a great time to associate with our fellow North Century district members and many great people throughout the state. We got to witness the election and swearing in of the new State President John R Lawless. Looking forward to meeting him when he comes to visit our Lodge. Many other people were also elected to positions. Dan Shannon from Lowville Lodge is our new State Vice President. Brian Dezelle from Ogdensburg Lodge will be our next District Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler beginning in July. I had an opportunity to talk with both of these dedicated Elks and an looking forward to working with them throughout the next year.
We continue to work towards upcoming events that hopefully people will get out and attend. Our committees and all of the volunteers are continuing to do a great job. Without them, we would have a difficult time moving forward. Remember, this is your Lodge.
Please, if you have any questions, reach out to me or any of our officers.
Fraternally yours,
ER Philip K Nuffer
