First and formost is our Stated Dinner and Meeting on April 7th. If you've not been to the lodge in awhile, this is the perfect time to reintroduce yourself. Dine on Dover Sole Almondine prepared by our own PBS Catering, and shmooze with your lodge brothers. Call the lodge for reservations (no charge for Brothers and guests) 510-864-9545 in case you've forgotten...
This month starts Brother John Potter's first work as a candidate coach. After the dinner on April 7th, John will be working with the Fellowcrafts to help them learn their proficiency. This means John will miss the meeting, and we will have to check back with him to find out if that is good or bad. We thank Brother Potter for coming forward and offering his work.
May 15th is our lodge picnic on the Green at Coast Guard Island--thanks to Brother Montague. Information is forthcoming so keep an eye here and on the Trestleboard. Because this is a military (dept of the Treasury, actually) facility, reservations are REQUIRED.
We now have an Island City Lodge Facebook page. At the moment it is incomplete, but we are working on it. If you'd like to write an article from time to time for this blog, contact Bro. Josh Cohen. If you want to keep up with lodge events (we are more active than we have been in awhile!),
Sunday, June 12th is the Children's Hospital event and our members are invited to help man the the cooking booth. This worthy cause is also great fun, and promotes Masonry in the community at its finest! Dennis and his wife Jeanette have been doing this for the past 15 years or so, and the lodge has begun helping this worthy cause as a lodge event. Contact Brother Wallace for details and to let him know you will be helping out!
Our Feast of Saint Johns' which celebrates the origins of Masonry is scheduled for June 18th at 6:30. Reservations are REQUIRED! If you've not been to one of these formal events, it is quite a treat! Read your Trestleboard for history and background.
I'm sure I am missing something. Come around once in awhile. We'd love to see you!
