REINSTATEMENTS
If you know anyone who has been dropped from the roles for non-payment of dues and would
like to return to the Lodge, our by-laws permit us to waive the re-instatement fee for the months
of January and February. Please let them know – we would love to see them back!
2023-24 DUES
Dues notices will be going out at the end of February. I just wanted to give you a heads-up that
our dues will be increasing for the next Lodge year due to assessments from the organization
that are outside of the Tarentum Lodge Control. The dues for the 2023-24 Lodge year will be
$54 for regular members and $34 for life members. It is still an honor to belong to such an
amazing organization!
LIFE MEMBERSHIP
If you have been a member of our Lodge for 30 consecutive years and are at least 65 years of
age, you are eligible for life membership. If this is you, please let the Lodge know by email to
elks644@elks644.comcastbize.net and we will address this for you.

WEEKLY EVENTS AT THE LODGE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT BINGO - WEEKLY
BINGO is held every Wednesday, upstairs. Doors open at 5pm and the early bird is at 6pm. BINGO has a MUST GO jackpot of $500, and we have an all paper BINGO with a $15 minimum packet.
Volunteers are always needed to sell packets, sell tickets during BINGO and to call the second half of BINGO.
Please contact Terry Hendrickson if you are able to help.
DART LEAGUE
Dart league starts the first Thursday in January and will run about 12 weeks. The start time is 6pm and finishes up around 9pm. The cost is $20 per person for the year. The league does a weekly 50/50 and that pays for a great banquet at the end of the season. Join us for a GREAT TIME!
Any questions, see Bonnie on a Thursday evening at the Lodge or call/text Shelly.
Ladies’ In-House EUCHRE League
In August of 2020, we started playing EUCHRE upstairs on Tuesday’s. It quickly became a weekly game. We started out with 2-3 tables, but the threat of COVID forced the Lodge closed and halted play. To continue playing, we met at various homes and grew to 4 full tables (which became difficult to host). Weekly meetings moved to the Anchor Inn where we were able to enjoy dinner and games. However, as we grew, we had to relocate due to parking issues. When AttaBoy’s took over the Elks Kitchen, we were able to come back to the Lodge on Thursdays and enjoy EUCHRE now that the kitchen was open. We eventually switched to meeting every other week, giving everyone a much needed break. That’s a bit of our history. The ladies enjoy their night out. We currently have a list of almost thirty girls!
If you would like to join us, please contact Terri Bowser.
Men’s Traveling EUCHRE League
The league plays on Tuesday’s, September thru March, starting at 7pm. There are 5 clubs involved that compete for a traveling club trophy during a 26-week schedule. Food is provided by the home team. The league requires at least 10 players per team. Dues are $70 per year which helps to pay for food expenses and a team banquet at the end of the season. A Championship League Banquet occurs at season’s end.
The team is always looking for players! Anyone interested, please contact Louie Prignon, Team Captain & League President
