Brothers,

Time is rapidly moving by.  I believe we have had a productive three months.  We currently have four brothers taking degrees. Several applications have been received and I look foreward to raising more fine men.  We have expanded some of our commitees to better serve our widows and brothers.  I am looking for  more brothres to get involved.  This is your lodge, the sky is the limit as to what we can acomplish.  Tp play the words of John F. Kennedy, ask not what  your lodge can do for you, ask what you can do for your lodge.  Please see me if there are any programs that you would like to see or if there is something you would like to do.  The more the merrier.

Our Jr. Warden . Eric J. Malafronte did an outstanding E.A. Degree in January as well did S. Warden, Martin J. Macary with the F.C. Degree, R.W. Alfred Rollinson of District 3A was very impressed with our degree work, our records keeping and the Masonic knowledge of our three principal officers.

We held our annual George Washington Day dinner on February 18th. Thirteen brothres and five non-masons braved a surprise snow strom to attend.  Two of the guests asked for applications at the end of the evening and one more exprerssed an interest in joining.

Our historian. Bob Dorr, comtinues to impress the lodge with his tireless work not only in discovering new nuggets of information on our lodge and past members, but also the work that he is doing to preserve it for future generations. 

Finally, heading into the middle  of my term as Master of the lodge, I noe realize and understand why some of the Past Masters have stated "it's goin to go by fast".  There is a lot more that I want to accomplish.  I will continue to stive to do my best for you and our lodge.

Fraternally,

Shane Dufresne

Worshipful master
