Women of the Moose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Women of the Moose are the female auxiliary of the Loyal Order of Moose.[1] Like the rest of the Order, membership originally operated by racial discrimination and was historically open to only white women; it has since been integrated.[citation needed]
The WOTM works four degrees. The first is the Co-Worker and is considered necessary to be considered a full member. The other three are Academy of Friendship, College of Regents, and Star Recorder, and are based on merit. On formal occasions members wear Geneva gowns, reminiscent of those worn at college graduations and church choirs. Officers wear different colored stoles.[2]
The Women of the Moose are headquartered in Mooseheart, Illinois.[3]
