January was full of behind-the-scenes activity; filing for dispensations, by-laws amendment, ratification of our agreement with C.B.S.C., the move and such; but we also enjoyed some leisure time....M/W/S meeting was held at our new home, with W.Bro. Russ creating a trio of delectable soups with all the trimmings, and was very well attended. Bro. Zolessi and I attended Richland Lodge and were warmly welcomed by W.Bro. Connie Eckard and the Brethren. February started off with a very pleasant visitation to Benton Lodge 277 with V.W. Bro. Bill Dodd, W.Bro. Russ Campbell, Bro. Randy Strand and myself attending; good food and excellent fellowship were had by all! Monday, Feb. 5 th, we will be attending Richland Lodge for their "White Apron" nite, dig out your Lambskin and come with us! (starts at 7:30) Our Stated on Feb. 6 will be the first in our new "home", and promises to be full of interesting discussion, and I have some historical information to present(on all the lodges in the area) that should be interesting as well. Our 2nd Stated (Feb.20) will be a dinner meeting, (dinner @ 6:30/Lodge @ 7:30) , and we will be presenting the E.A. Exemplification for our program.
