Ever since the movie starring Morgan Freeman and Jack Nickelson, the “Bucket List” has been more than a popular topic. Other lists have, historically speaking, been important in our lives, lists such as the “HIT List” and the “Honey-Do List” (as all husbands are very much aware). Today, however, surpassing the “Bucket List” and all the other lists is the list of the Loyal Order of Moose-- “THE IT LIST”!

And just what is the “IT LIST”?

It’s that list of a dozen Ohio Moose members who have been elevated to the Pilgrim Degree of Merit at the House of God this past Saturday, May 22, 2010.

These twelve men are the “it” of Ohio Moose for this year in that their Fellows and Pilgrims of their Lodges have seen fit to suggest their elevation to the highest degree that this Order can bestow upon them.

Twelve men from Ohio have been chosen this year . . .
