At Modern Woodmen, our brand colors tell a story. In our early days, members would have jewelry decorated with red (representing life, action), white (pure intentions) or green (eternal life) enamel. Today, our official colors are blue and green, often depicted through sky and land imagery. This expresses our rural roots, while conveying growth and a positive future.

Retiring in 2026? Here are three year-end retirement planning tips to help you make the most of your finances before the calendar flips. 1. Maximize retirement contributions. Boost your 401(k), IRA and HSA savings before limits reset! 2. Delay Social Security (if you can). Waiting equals bigger monthly checks later. 3. Review and update your wills, trusts, powers of attorney and health-care directives. Meet with me to discuss!
