As we close out the 2025 California Nevada Moose Association (CNMA) year the Moosehaven Committee made a presentation at the CNMA Annual Convention, including drawing the winning ticket for two members to win an all-expense paid trip to Moosehaven for the Annual Chili Cook-Off and Car Show in November. The winner was Shirley Scott from Simi Valley Lodge 1902. Her travel arrangements have already been made, and she will be on campus for the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the completed AAA Building.
As you can see from the attached statistic sheet California Nevada now has 18 members residing at Moosehaven which is third behind Florida and Illinois.
Thank you to all our members who have helped make this a great year for our seniors at Moosehaven and let us continue in 2026.

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.
