From The East

My Brothers,

Looks like winter is finally over....nope never mind another Nor'easter storm.

Winter cannot last forever it just may feel like it...spring and summer are coming.

Well the Masonic year is quickly coming to an end and we still have much to do.

We have a few fundraising event on the books. Sinatra and Pasta promises to be a great opportunity to take your lady out for a Sinatra Dinner and Show. Sean Reilly is an amazing singer and the food at our event is always top notch. The last fundraising event for the year is our annual Sausage and Pepper Sale at Separation Day in Old New Castle. Come out and support your lodge and community. This is a good family event with an unbelievable fireworks show at the end. We are going to need help at these events.

Anything you can do will help....like set up, help load and unload, and with clean up.

As always, my brothers, I look forward to seeing you in Lodge. Come out and share friendship, morality and brotherly love.

Fraternally Yours,
W∴M∴ Stephane (Steve) G. Sabourin, PM
