October Stated Meeting TOMORROW

Brethren-   I look forward to seeing you all again this Wednesday, October 15.   Please be aware:   1) We'll be passing around the sign-up sheet for the Salvation Army Kettle Day, which is November 22.  We'll be selecting a centrally-located kettle; please be ready to at least sign up.  If you know the hours you'd like to volunteer, that would be a big help.   2) The Sportswear Committee is ready with the 2008 Collection.  Come ready to place your order for short-sleeve and long-sleeve polos, sweaters, vests, and half-zip sweatshirts.  We hope to turn in orders in November and have everything back for the December Stated Meeting.   3) The invitation and reply card are out for Sweetheart's Night: November 1.  I'll be able to take your RSVP tomorrow night (or any time).   See you tomorrow, Steve Douglas

Bert Baloun in Jewish Hospital

Brethren and Friends-   I was notified tonight that Bert is in the hospital tonight after having suffered what turns out to have been a mild heart attack.   He is currently too weak to receive visitors; we'll keep you posted.   Please keep Elaine in your thoughts and prayers.   Best, Steve

Past Masters Night

Brethren-   Please remember that tomorrow, Wednesday, September 24, is Past Masters Night at the Temple.   Dinner is 6:15pm; Lodge will open at 7:15pm.   See you there! Steve

A MESSAGE FROM THE WEBMASTER!

Hello Brethren, I am very sorry our web site has been down since August 19. It seems hostonce.com is having server problems. I have this Update Blog setup at Blogspot.com, so we can still do any important updates from the lodge. I will also put the bulletins up on another site, so they can be accessed to read or download. I will post a link here for the bulletins. We will hope the site is up and running soon. Fraternally, Glenn Daniel Webmaster.McMillanLodge141@gmail.com
