June, 2012

We did not confer an Entered Apprentice at our meeting in May.  Our candidate was called in to work.  That happens.  We did, however, vote on another petition so now we have two Entered Apprentices to do.  That means that we will have an EA at the stated meeting in June.  We will also have one at a special meeting called for June 30 at 6:00 PM.  Also at our stated meeting in June we will be voting on another petition as well as a petition for affiliation.  That is 4 new members so far.  It's shaping up to be a busy summer.  On June 23 at 8:00 AM the lodge will be having our first pancake breakfast at the campground at Stonelick Lake.  We'll meet at 7 AM to get things going.  We split the proceeds with the Friends of Stonelick to help them maintain the campground and other areas of the park.  We hope to do another one at the Stonelick antique machinery show  in August.  More on that later.  Also, the Worshipful Master and our Lodge Education Officer presented Worshipful Brother Fred Kuhnhenn his 60 year service award recently.  He thanked them for meeting him since he cannot get to the lodge anymore.  Congratulations to him for this acheivement.  On another note, Worshipful Brother John Mccollum presented the lodge with a new set of officer's aprons.  They are beautiful.  Come on out and see them.  I hope to see you at lodge soon.
