Women Of The Moose
The Women of the Moose is the women's component of the Moose
organization. Convening their first annual conference in conjunction with the
Loyal Order of Moose Convention in 1913, the organization was originally called
the "Women's Loyal Moose Circle,” and in 1916 was made a subgroup of the
Mooseheart Legion. Under its first chief executive, Katherine Smith, the group
became independent and was renamed "Women of the Moose" in 1931. Moose International supports the operation of Mooseheart Child City & School, a 1,000-acre (4.0 km2) community for children and teens in need, located 40 miles (64 km) west of Chicago; and Moosehaven, a 63-acre (250,000 m2)
retirement community for its members near Jacksonville, FL. Also, Moose
Lodges and Chapters conduct approximately $75 million worth of
community service (counting monetary donations and volunteer hours
worked) annually.
