Master’s Message – March 2023

Brethren,

Our next Stated communication and dinner will be Wednesday March 8th.

The Kellogg Assembly #92 Rainbow girls joined us for our February Stated and amazed us with their Ribbon presentation at Refreshment as part of our tribute Valentine’s Day. It was truly top notch. There was also an dessert auction held which the girls provided whole and hand pies, cookies & banana bars.

Our long-awaited Brunch will kick off on Saturday March 11th. This is open to all bodies who meet in our building and their families at no cost. This is Sunnyside’s normal Stated meeting date, and we only ask that those Masons attending the brunch, please attend the Stated meeting @10am. Brunch will start after their Stated, usually around 11:30am. Ladies start arriving for fellowship and fun around 9:30am. It will also be the Grand Masters Official Visit; so let’s make a strong showing.

The Members and Officers of Washington 46 will be very busy this year, hope you all can join us. In pursuit of the GMAA (Grand Masters Achievement Award), we will be doing a lot of visitations, practices, and education:
