Chief’s Vision

It is an honor to serve as your Lodge Chief and a privilege to have the opportunity to stand before each of you, fueled with the desire to make a difference. We stand not just as members of Lenape Lodge but as its heart and soul for its future. You are the future generation of leaders of our lodge, you who will guide our lodge to greater heights.

My vision is simple but powerful: a completely youth-led lodge. Every one of you can lead and inspire others, each leaving your mark for those to follow. We come from different backgrounds, cultures, and places, but when we put on our tan uniform and wear our flap with pride, we become one. United by our values, united by purpose, united in service to others. We are Lenape Lodge.

As your Lodge Chief, I am here every step of the way to help. I can attest your experience in Lenape Lodge will be as enriching and fulfilling as mine once was. We will together make Lenape Lodge the pinnacle of brotherhood, cheerfulness, and service for years to come. After all, you are the lodge.

Michael Esimio, 2024-2025 Lodge Chief
