Lodge 19's Recruitment Night

Johnson / Russell Memorial Lodge 19 had their recruitment night last evening at Moe's in Mounds View. They signed up 30 new members, including a large contingent from Forest Lake P.D. In the photo is the lodge's immediate past president, Josh Arneson and the current president, Tom Pitzl. Of course, the people in the middle are my wife and I.

The brothers and sisters of lodge #19 have pledged their support to me for my re-election bid. I am honored by their confidence and do not take it for granted.

Last night's event was extremely well run and very well attended. This is the kind of thing that is going to make the FOP continue to grow. In fact, I spoke to a few people that asked what it took to charter a new lodge.

Thanks again, Johnson / Russell Memorial Lodge - Keep up the good work!
