Lodge Letter

January, 2008

The Lodge had a productive year in 2007 and looks to continue that trend into the 2008 year. Many of the targeted projects were completed including having the Lodge roof repaired, netting $4,249.20 in the Fest-i-Fun including feeding 18 firemen and 19 widows, netting $839 from the Fall Stew and improving the lighting in the lodge meeting room. We were also very active in 2007 having 30 meetings, raising 7 members to the degree of Master Mason and holding a Masonic memorial service for Brother Fleet Cox. In addition to these accomplishments, the lodge contributed to the Fort Mill Care Center, contributed to burial expenses for a brother in a neighboring lodge and provided a new computer for the secretary.

Looking forward, we have several projects in the works. These would include a new sign for the front of the lodge, fund-raising plans including another Fest-i-fun,  a late winter stew and a fall stew, improving the wiring in the lodge, and possibly sponsoring a T-ball team. It also looks to be another active year with degree work carrying over from 2007.

Welcome to 2008!
