On Tuesday, March 24th I attended a meeting of the Northern Lodges in Moorhead. Despite the flood risk, we had a good turn out. I am very proud of the lodges in the Northern half of our state..they are very active and continue to take care of their membership as well as police officers in general, the most recent one being Chris Dewey.

Above you will find photos of me with members of Lodge 8, 11 and 22. On hand also were State President Cayo, First V.P. Miller, Second V.P. Marichalar, and Secretary / Treasurer Anderson. We had some great dialogue and excellent suggestions.

I am humbled by the support that I received at this meeting, and overwhelmed by the strong vocalization of the same. As I told the brothers at this meeting, a silver lining to the campaign trail, it's getting out and having some good one on one with the membership. It was great seeing everyone.
