We lost a member to death this month, Raymond Gregston.  He was the owner of Rothman's Hardware in Newtonsville.  Though he did not attend a lot of meetings, he was a strong supporter of our lodge and he will be sorely missed.  The lodge floor has finally been stabilized and is in the home stretch of being completed.  Some of the damage discovered was worse than first thought and required some professional consultation.  Some of the brethren got together and had a pancake breakfast at Stonelick Lake campground that raised some money for the lodge.  They hope to have another on later this year.  There is some degree work that still needs to happen this year so look for those.  We will probably do one in September sometime.  The Worshipful Master announced that there will be a Christmas party again this year.  More details will be announced later.  Our annual outdoor degree was discussed and a determination will be made abour whether to have it or not after the site has been visited.  Keep your brethren in your prayers and come to a meeting when you can.
