On September 4th 2007 lodge 22, North Star Lodge, chartered in the city
of Roseau. Most of the new members had been members of lodge 8 and due
to the enormous areas that lodge 8 covered, the members in the north
were asked to start a new local lodge.
The thought was that starting a new lodge would improve attendance and
keep activities and meetings within the communities that the officer
worked in.
On September 4th 2007 at a lodge 8 meeting, we started a new lodge, #22
and voted on the name of our new lodge. The NORTH STAR LODGE.
Chad Maurstad was appointed president, Mike Siems was appointed Vice
President, Brian DeMars was appointed trustee and John Roseborough was
appointed Secretary/Treasurer.
At the first official meeting an election was held and Chad Maurstad
remained president, Mike Siems remained Vice President, Brian DeMars
remained Trusted, John Roseborough split the position of
Secretary/Treasurer with Jeff Abrams. John was elected treasurer and
Jeff was elected Secretary. Dan Bergrren was elected Sgt. At Arms and
John Nyegaard was appointed Chaplin. Ruben Marichalar was elected
Delegate at Large.
From there and a long learning process Lodge 22, North Star Lodge took
off and is up an running.
As of December 2007 we were over 35 members and growing. Our lodge
involves Roseau County Sheriff’s Office, Roseau Police, Warroad Police,
Greenbush Police, Minnesota State Patrol, U.S. Border Patrol, U.S.
Customs, Canada Border Protection, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Thief
River Falls Police, Marshall County Sheriff’s Office, and Several
retired Law Enforcement Officers.
Our future plans include a summer fishing derby, the growth of our lodge
to include surrounding counties, Canadian Officers, and the mounted
posse.
