We are into spring and our building is
in order thanks to all the hard work of our Trustees. Give
them a big thanks when you see them. We are in the posting
process of our new brothers and will be doing some FC
degrees this month and we are always looking for help and
support from the membership.
June will be a busy month for Doric. Our first meeting will
be some planning for our Cornerstone event along with our
summer chicken dinner, details to follow. Grand Lodge will
be the first weekend of June. In July, we will hold our
first Doric golf outing so get the clubs out and join in the
fun. In August, we will be working at the VA again as
escorts. Please give me a call if you could assist.
GOLF OUTING
The Doric Golf and Dinner Outing will be held on Sunday July
27, at the Bridges Golf Course on Hwy 30 and Shopko Drive.
The outing is open to anyone so bring the family and all
your friends. Bring your own foursome or we can make some
up. The Rate for 9 holes is $15 without cart and $22 with
cart. Tee times begin at 3:12 pm and we will play 9 holes
this year. Participants may play golf only, play golf and
dinner, or dinner only. Dinner will follow at about 6 at the
Bridges and we will order off the menu. Please send
reservations to Paul Hallingstad by Sunday July 13. You can
contact him by e-mail at pdhjmh

CHICKEN DINNER
The summer Chicken Dinner will be a Grill-Out on Saturday,
August 16 from Noon - 2:00 pm at Doric. There will be brats,
burgers and grilled chicken. The sides will be beans, potato
salad, and cole slaw with chips. Desserts are always around.
We need volunteers to bring grills, to tend the grills, and
to bring the sides. The sign up is in the Lodge or by

CORNERSTONE
This will be a very special day for Doric on Tuesday, June
17. There will be a dinner for those who wish at 6:00 pm.
Reservations are a MUST for the dinner.
RSVP by Tuesday, June 10 to either Dale
Holmen by e-mail at holmendd (at)

above contact info) with total number of people
eating. The cost for dinner is $10.
The ceremony will begin at 7:30 pm with a public opening so
bring your family, friends, and neighbors. Tell every Mason
you know that I would like to fill the house that night. The
Grand Line Officers will conduct the ceremony. I want to
take pictures of these different groups: Past Masters, all
50 plus year members, all Doric members. These pictures will
be placed behind our plaque for years to come. Come and be a
part of this as we hope this will be a once in a lifetime
event at Doric.
As you can see we will be busy and always want you to be a
part of this Lodge. Come and join the fun and be a part of
the Doric family.
