DeMolay

Brethren, we had a successful organizational meeting for DeMolay on March 13.  The next step is training for advisors.  That event will occur at the 22nd Street Lounge at the Jaffa Mosque, Sunday, April 27, 1-5 PM.  Refreshments will be provided.  We are looking for additional participation by Brothers and other interested adults including women.  If you could help us and would like to participate in this activity, please contact Dave Smith at 696-3459.  We can use all the help we can get in launching this important endeavor.

DeMolay Organizational Meeting (1/22/08)

Brethren, we are working to revive DeMolay in District 20.  We'll hold an organizational meeting at the Hollidaysburg Lodge Hall at 7:00 PM, March 13.  We'll need to come out of that meeting with agreements from Brothers to assume particular responsibilities.  Otherwise we won't have DeMolay!  Please come out and help provide this significant opportunity to our youth.

Change for the Troops (1/21/08)

At the end of each stated meeting, the Senior Warden will remind the Brethren that there is a collection receptacle provided in which the Brethren can deposit pocket change.  Of course, paper won't be refused.  All of these funds will be sent as 300 minute phone cards to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
