On December 3rd, 2022, over 150 arrowman from Yerba Buena joined together in fellowship at the Alameda Elks Lodge to hold its second annual Lodge Awards Banquet. Attendees got to enjoy great food and connect with fellow Arrowman. In addition to the delicious meal, a raffle, silent auction, trading post, and swearing-in of 2023 officers took place. Highlights included auctioning of the 2022 officers as waiters and a Spotify wrap-style yearly wrap-up. Current Vice-Chief of Activations (and incoming Lodge Chief) Jessica Stevens headed this fantastic event!
The following Arrowman received awards and seven new Vigil Candidates were selected. Congratulations to everyone!
