We got it! A game room with pool tables, air-hockey and a jukebox, a dance floor, a meeting hall, a big patio, and lots more right here in town.

As kids we dreamt of the ultimate club house, as teenagers we searched for the ultimate party spot, now that we're mature (ahem) adults it's the game room! It is "ClubMoose"!

In the last few months many new people have been joining the Loyal order of the Moose here in Petaluma. It's a fraternity for men and women (can you have a fraternity of women?, "Sororiternity?" "Frarority?") that sponsors charity events and provides its members a place, a forum, a big living room, to build a community.

The club house is a couple of blocks west of down town at 300 English Street (just up from Petaluma City Hall).

In addition to the game room(!), the club house includes a big meeting hall where we can have meetings,parties, movies, bands, wedding receptions, wakes, arguments, whatever your mind can dream up.....

There's a full kitchen, a bar, the game room and a large outdoor patio with built-in barbeques. The parking lot can also be used by members for parking RVs. There are 2000 other Moose Lodges around the country where we can hang out, too.

Yes, Virginia, we're now having fun!!!

I became a Moose member in May 2005. It a fraternity for men and women and we need new members. It's a place where we can create wonderful social capital. Where we'll feel confortable any night of the week knowing that you can always go down to the Moose (with your kids if you have any) and find some one you know, watch a movie, have a conversation, play some pool or chess or just have a tea or a glass of wine.
