It’s Calendar time again!

The Ohio Elks Buckeye Bucks calendars are available behind the bar.They make for awesome Christmas gifts. Our lodge had three winners just last month.

Here’s the drill. You get 730 chances to win between $50 and $500. The best part is you don’t need to keep track of anything. If you are a winner the money is sent to your home automatically. They are only $20 and our lodge gets to keep $5 of that. The other money goes to the OEA for all of the great work they do. The number on the calendar (or card) is tied to the Ohio Lottery Pick 4 contest. If that number is selected, you are a winner! Be popular at Christmas time!

 

Lounge to open for Buckeye football!

Many of you have clamored for the Elks to open on Saturdays. Well, I’m proud to announce starting this September you get your wish! The Lounge will be open for every Ohio State game and many Michigan, Notre Dame, University of Findlay, and select BGSU games. Hot dogs, brats, and snacks will be available free of charge, we kindly ask for a donation to cover food costs. A volunteer sign-up sheet will be available at the bar. Several games will be exclusively on ESPN+ or Peacock. If anyone has subscriptions to those apps please see Josh Palmer. For any other questions reach out to Josh Palmer, Jeff Jenson, or Jim Kennedy. 

  • November 18:   Minnesota 4 pm
  • November 25:   at Michigan Noon.  This game will be the same pot luck affair that we have done for years. Bring a dish to share. We won’t be grilling that day. Bring a friend (or two). Doors open at 11:30 AM and the game is at noon.
