I hope everyone had a great summer and
you are ready for an exciting and busy fall. To bring you up
to date we held our Lodge dedication on our last meeting
date. We had around 50 for dinner and many more for the
program with the help of the Grand Lodge officers.
We have started a Tuesday morning coffee hour; a time for
fun and fellowship. We have seen many friends and look
forward to seeing more. Nick, thanks for your work on this.
This is open to anyone so come and bring a friend.
We finished much of the work around our new lodge with the
tireless efforts of our trustees. We need to give them a big
round of thanks. We still have work to do with our
landscaping. How about ‘Adopt a bush for the lodge’? We will
be forming a list of needs that members and friends may
purchase in the name of someone special.
We have held a Fellowcraft degree and have three more to do
yet. We will be holding a Master Mason degree on Sept. 16
and we are looking for your support as well as assistance in
the degree. Please contact an officer to offer help.
I have set up some special dates for everyone to note:
Sept 2 - First regular meeting of
the fall
Sept 16 - Short meeting and MM degree
Oct 7 - Regular meeting with Honor 50 year members
Oct 21 - Short meeting with program on Civil War with
Dan Bradford
Nov 4 - Regular meeting with election of officers for
2009
Nov 18 - Regular meeting with Honor Past Masters
Dec 2 - Regular meeting with member recognitions
With a new season, I hope to see many
new faces in lodge. We are looking for members that are
interested in serving our lodge. Please let us know your
interest.
If there is something we can do for you please let someone
know. Need a ride to lodge? Give a call. Have you or family
member been under the weather? Let us know.
See you in lodge,
Dale Holmen PM
