As the Lodge moves forward into 2009 we are looking forward to having a father and son, Worshipful Master and Senior Warden, James McGurn, and Matthew McGurn. Thanks to Kevin Carroll PM for filling the position of Junior Warden.
Our ladies night, at Bennie the Bums at the Stadium Holiday Inn was a great success. There was plenty of food, though you would not know it, the way some of our brothers filled their plates. They must have thought it was there last meal. Steps are being considered to remedy this situation next year. Our attendance was off this year with 183 people, 32 of which were our brothers and ladies from the Square Club. Thanks again to those brothers.
Special thanks go to Stephen Kish PM and his Lady Victoria for the gifts and door prizes, Kevin Carroll PM for the center pieces. Thomas O'Brien III PM and his Lady Gwenny for helping in the table set ups. Thanks go out to Frederick Ryan PM for his support and special gifts provided. Thanks to my wife, Jo Ann for all her help in planning the menu, and the program.
Keep the Sunday after Mother's Day open for our 111th prayer service at the Masonic Home at Lafayette Hills, time 2:30PM refreshments to follow. After refreshment a dinner follows. More details to follow.
