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.

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. Moose Community Outreach - March 2010
