Moosehaven Chili Cookoff
During the Saturday evening banquet at the CNMA Convention in September the Moosehaven Committee drew a winning ticket for the drawing to attend the Moosehaven Chili Cookoff on November 8, 2025. The winner of the round trip, all expense paid trip to Jacksonville, Florida was Shirley Scott of Simi Valley Lodge 1902. On Friday November 7, 2025 there was the added attraction of the official ribbon cutting ceremony for the new AAA building. This 6-month project raised a total of $9,421.00 which, after all expenses for Shirley’s trip are fully covered, the remainder will be donated to Moosehaven and the CNMA President’s project.
Please enjoy the attached pictures which show Past CNMA President Dina Munday with our Moosehaven resident Sue Hicks, the ribbon cutting ceremony, CEO Scott Hart stirring a Chili pot and other pictures of the campus all decked out for a great weekend.

ADMISSIONS
Moosehaven now offers Moose members two choices for admission: The Traditional Retirement Plan and the Fee-For-Service Plan, referred to as Brandon Place at Moosehaven. The choices are designed to help meet the various financial needs of Moose members. Under both plans, applicants must be at least 65 years of age. For those who wish to enter into the Traditional Retirement Program, members should have at least 15 years of membership and be in good standing. For Brandon Place applicants, a minimum of six months of membership is required.
Residents under the Traditional Retirement Plan will have their Social Security, Pensions, and any other real or tangible property deposited into their own Retirement Account, managed by Moosehaven. Admission is not based on how much, or how little a resident has to fund their account. In the meantime, Moosehaven provides all of their housing needs, clothing, toiletries, campus activities and events, entertainment, transportation, and all levels of medical care.
Brandon Place residents move into independent homes, that are well-appointed with all appliances, blinds, fans, tile and carpet. Homes come with a security system and are maintenance free to the resident. Residents must financially qualify to live at Brandon Place, demonstrating they have enough in their financial investments to support them through out their expected lifetime. Brandon Place residents will continue to manage their own investments. As their health care needs increase, they will transition to the Moosehaven LifeCare Center. In the meantime, they enjoy all of the services, amenities, and entertainment that the Moosehaven campus provides.
