THE BLUE ANGEL PROGRAM

At the 79th Supreme Scratch, the Great Blue Louse invited the Lady Bugs to join his Blue Louse Guard. Some of joined and we hope all or more will join us. I feel that the Blue Guard is not proper for our ladies. I started the Blue Angels to the house of the Great Blue Louse.

All the funds raised from the program will be set aside to a Special Fund to support the Cootie Courier, which is one of the Supreme’s largest budget items. As everyone knows, every year we struggle to try to keep it going, but it gets harder and harder each year. You have come to our help throughout the years and I, for one, appreciate what you have all done in the past to help.  What you have all done in the past to help.

The Blue Angel Program Works as Follows:
• Step 1: To become a Blue Angel any lady may join at this step and must serve one (1) year. You must pay a $5.00 entry fee plus $1.00 annual dues. You may wear a blue star (“reaching for the Stars). The pin is $2.50.

• Step 2: You must pay $10.00 plus $1.00 dues. You will then earn your wings. You must have served one year as a blue star. The pin is $2.50.

• Step 3: You must pay $15.00 plus $1.00 dues. You will then earn your own cloud. You must have served one year as blue star. The pin is $2.50.

• Step 4: You pay $20.00 plus $1.00 dues. You will then earn your halo. You must have served one year each as a blue star with wings and with your own cloud. The pin is $2.50.

• Step 5 and 6 are reserved future Ladies-in-Waiting and Ladies of the Court. Going, but it gets harder and harder each year. You have come to our help throughout the years and I, for one, appreciate what you have all done in the past to help.

MOC HOSPITALIER KNIGHTS PROGRAM

Knights1

The MOC has issued a special medal as a fund raiser for the organization. During the Crusades the first knights to enter the Holy Lands opened a hospital. They were named Hospitalier Knights. Later the Knights moved to the Island of Malta. They were than named Knights of Malta. Thus the Cross of Malta was formed by placing four lance heads together.

The Cross of Malta was adopted as the official logo of the VFW. Since the MOC is the Honor Degree of the VFW and since the MOC is the order that services the hospitals and cares for veterans and their families, it is only fitting that the medal be named “HOSPITALIER KNIGHT”. This medal comes in Bronze ($25.00), Silver ($35.00) and gold ($45.00). The application is attached with this program. Also, please remember to add $3.50 for postage and handling.

The Red Star Program is Alive and Well!


       And still signing up Life members! 
If you are a Life member of our Crummy Fraternity, you may or may not be aware of a program that was started a few years ago.  Back in 2005, Past Supreme Commander Tom Tweet proposed a program to help out the Supreme organization.

   We were redesigning the Life Membership card and changing it from a white card to a gold-colored card.  The cards were being redesigned since we were about to run out of the old white ones.  Past Supreme Commander Tweet suggested that every Life Member replace their card with the new gold card.  He then mentioned that when the U.S. Mint replaces a semi-destroyed dollar bill, it re-issues the serial number, but places a little star in front of the serial number.  He suggested that we start up a program similar to that program, only the Life Member would have his Life Member number re-issued on the new gold colored card and a red star would be placed in front of the Life Member number signifying that a second donation had been made to help the MOC.

Since then, hundreds of Cooties have applied to become Red Star Life Members.  The only question that remains is:  Are YOU a Red Star Life Member yet?  To become one of the "Lousy" elite simply contact Supreme Quartermaster Gary Dressel at supremehqmoc@lotcs. org. Or go to the Cootie Depot and purchase your Red Star Life Membership online by going to: https://www.lotcs.org/WA_ eCart/life_member.php#RedStarLMCard.
