Moose Supports Miracle League - Oct. 2011


   The Grand Island Moose Lodge #180 hosted a fundraiser for Miracle League on Saturday, October 15, 2011, and if you missed it, you definitely missed a good time. Several children got to take part in a jam session with the band "Wide Right" and they enjoyed every minute of it. Ian Cameron was really getting into it as you can see from the pictures, the bass guitarist, Bobby, made Ian's night as he went along side of him and jammed with him. Dawn Gruszka received some extra special attention from the lead singer, Mike, that also made her night. Miles Schoelles, Tyler, Ashlynne, Ayden and Alyssa Cooper were the other children who participated and received "blow up" guitars to take home as souvenirs. Nancy Anderson put together the event and it definitely "rocked." Thanks to all who did attend or donated a basket or gift certificate.

Those enjoying the meal wanted to express their sincere appreciation to the Moose for this generous gesture that gets their holiday season off to a great start.


“Weinee Palooza” Remembrance of Peter Courey - October 2010

    On Saturday, October 16, 2010, a group of friends of the late Peter Courey gathered for what is called “Weinee Palooza” in memory of Peter Courey. The event has taken place almost every year since Pete passed away in July 2005. Don Hoover has spearheaded the gathering and the first two years Pete’s parents attended the event, unfortunately they have both passed away within the last year. Money was raised for the Grand Island Neighbors Foundation and each person in attendance had to bring a dish that contained hot dogs. The unusual as well as common dishes were dined on. A table is always set up with a picture of Pete, a lit candle and an ashtray, which represents Pete’s love for a good cigar! The group hopes to keep the tradition up next year in memory of their friend, Pete.

    Over 200+ brand new books were recently collected by Moose members to be donated to Women and Children's Hospital of Buffalo. The Grand Island Moose Family Center is a part of an international organization of men and women dedicated to caring for young and old, bringing communities together and celebrating life. In the past year alone, the Moose has reached out to the community in several ways from a canned food drive for the Neighbors Foundation, hosting Thanksgiving dinner for the Island View Seniors, supporting a Relay For Life team, holding a garage sale to benefit Hospice, collecting for care packages to be sent to the troops overseas, along with hosting a children’s Halloween and Christmas party and coming up soon, the annual children’s Easter Egg Hunt. The Moose always has something going on. For more information please call 773-6655.
