Hello all,

We are proud to announce that the California Nevada Moose Association (CNMA) had two more Youth Awareness Scholarship winners this year!!!  Congratulations to Kamal Haddad, sponsored by Sunnyvale Lodge.  Kamal earned 3rd place and a $6,000 scholarship.  Kamal earned third place two years ago as well!!  Newcomer Alejandro Ledon, sponsored by Downey Lodge earned 5th place and a $4,000 scholarship.

Congratulations to all of the students from the CNMA who participated in the YA program this year.  We have many high school seniors this year that will be graduating and leaving the program.  We would like to thank these students; some have participated in the program all four years.  We wish them well in all their future endeavors!

We will be setting up Youth Awareness Congresses beginning in August.  If your Lodge would like to host, please reach out to me and I will get you on the calendar.  All we need is a place in the Lodge where we can meet for three to four hours, provide us with high school students (they do not need to be affiliated with a member) and provide a light refreshment.  Our committee will take care of the rest!!  Dates will fill up quickly, so don’t delay.

Thank you to all of the Lodges, Chapters, Moose Legions and Moose Riders, for supporting our program.
