The Secretary’s Desk – January 2021

First and foremost, we welcome all our new elected and appointed officers for 2021. We have encountered many new challenges during these last 10 months and our hope for the future would be improved medical treatments for the virus and that our socialization opportunities just get better and better. We have prospective members waiting in the sidelines, just waiting for that opportunity to meet with us and discover what we have all experienced, Friendship, Morality and Brotherly Love.

Many of our lodges are experiencing membership issues, looking for ways to boost their rolls. We are looking for a few good men, that will undertake a long-term commitment to support their lodge, their craft and the programs that their officers would like to support. Yes, how we do this will take everyone’s participation and I know if that is our focus, are membership will grow and new faces will emerge as the leaders of the lodge’s future.

These next few months will be challenging ones so let’s get to work and make 2021 a year that we can all be proud of.

Fraternally,

Don Stapleton, Secretary
