Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Well, even though it doesn’t feel like March, it is. Soon, we’ll even see robins. This means that this is my second to last ‘ER Message’. There’s a whole new slate of officers being installed on March 30^th, with a dinner, free of charge, for all members and spouses.

For a recap of February’s activities, please read the articles in the newsletter.

So what’s ahead for next couple of months? Here are a few up coming events for the next month. Please be sure to check the calendar too for a complete list:

As mentioned in the previous newsletter, nominations and elections of officers for the 2019-20 year were held. Please see the article for further detail. Again, please note that this is the time to start thinking of plans for the new lodge year; April 2019-March 2020. If you have any suggestions or thoughts, please let a current officer and/or trustee (or the incoming officers)know of them. Every member’s input is important!!

Finally, blessings to the three ‘ours’:

our Members (present and absent),
our Lodge, and
our Order.

Fraternally,

ER John Piddock
