Last Year Rt. Wor. Robert Simpson started our lodge year off with food collection to support the Blue Ridge Food Bank. As a lodge we delivered well over 1000 pounds of canned and other non perishable food items. I would like to see every brother that enters our temple bring one item to help support our continuing effort of supporting families in need thru the Blue Ridge Food Bank.
February is a special month for the lodge; it is the official visit or our DDGM, Rt. Wor. Bill Baskerville. I encourage our members and visitors to come out and support Brother Baskerville in his official visit. Brother Baskerville will also be making his official visit to King Solomon Lodge 194 on the 2nd Tuesday the 9th of February and Piedmont Stella Lodge 50 on the 3rd Wednesday 17th of February. Please help support Rt. Wor. Baskerville in his visits throughout the district.
In closing, I challenge every brother in supporting our Bring a Friend Nights and Fund Raising Dinners. I hope all is well with you and your families and look forward to seeing you at our Stated and Called Communications.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
David Simpson
Worshipful Master
