Brethren,
Welcome to
summer brothers, let’s hope the days are warm, the evenings are cool, and it
only rains at night. That doesn’t sound unreasonable to me.
This month we will be giving a Third Degree to our new
Brother. If
everyone that is available comes out to watch and welcome, it would really go a
long way
toward showing
our candidate we are a supporting group.
Speaking of being a supporting group and forgive me for having to get a little serious, our lodge has sadly become a little stale. At most meetings it is the same base group of men coming out, most of them past masters. We are getting close to crisis mode for officers coming in and going through the chairs.
I/we are asking, nay pleading, please, we need some good men to come in and step up, become more active. We need good men to come in and work toward leadership positions, work toward bringing in new members, be active and supportive of the Fraternity. This Lodge belongs to all of us, we all need to put in some level of effort.
If that effort cannot be to work toward going through the chairs, then can each member that is physically able please take some raffle tickets to sell so our fundraisers can be profitable, and we can be philanthropic as well as keep the lights on.
We
will be doing two (2) fundraisers this year, the present
Gun Raffle, and a
Pig Raffle in the fall.
If
anyone would like to get some tickets to buy or to sell, just reach out to any
of us, and we will get them to you.
Thank you for at
least considering these requests, and as we go dark for July and August, I wish
you all a great summer!
