Moose Lodge Entry System
This just in from Moose International!
Official Communications for May, 15, 2024
Coming Soon – Updated Membership Cards for Life Members
Plans are in the works to issue ALL Life Members a new membership card this summer. These cards will all have the QR code on the back side. Many lodges retained door readers for mag strip cards as well as the newer QR code reader. This allows entry for these members, who still hold the mag strip card, in the meantime. For replacement of lost membership cards, contact the Helpdesk at (630) 906-3658 or at Helpdesk@mooseintl.org.
Developed for the Moose, by a member!

Why Choose Us
I developed these systems simply because my lodge needed to handle the new QR codes. Once I did, 2 more lodges asked me to build theirs, and the rest, as they say, is history. I now have systems all over Florida, as well as Ohio, Kentucky, Colorado and West Virginia to name a few. And because I designed the system and wrote the software I am able to upgrade and improve them as needed, generally at no cost to the lodge.
For those that don’t know me, my name is Jim Ezzell, and I am the owner of Internet Systems Group, an Information Technology company based in South Florida. I am also the Chaplain of the Tamarac Moose Lodge #2267, as well as the entertainment coordinator and IT Director. This gives me a unique perspective on how to make things work for our lodges, and I have poured this knowledge into these systems.
