Shiloh Lodge #327
March 2003
Trestleboard
From the East
A raging snow storm didn’t stop a dozen members and their ladies from gathering at the Venice Inn for our annual Sweetheart’s Dinner on February 15th. The very ornate “Sunburst Trophy” was passed to and gratefully accepted by the new Master who will display it with honor throughout his term of office.
Our next opportunity to gather in fellowship will occur prior to our business meeting on March 5th. This will be the evening when Job’s Bethel #69 will hold their annual Box Dinner Auction prior to our monthly business meeting. Plan to come out and join in the fun and support the Job’s by bidding on their “goodies” and sharing a delightful dinner with the girls.
On Saturday, February 18th, Shiloh gained two new members during the One Day Class held at John J. Mercer #290. We welcome Brothers Kevin Mills and Robert Chandler to the Fraternity and invite they to take an active part in their new found “home”.
Two times ten months equals 20 new candidates this year. We have a good start. Let’s keep it going!
Fraternally Yours,
Charles W. Amidon
Worshipful Master-2003
Brethren –
Shiloh must pay it’s annual per capita dues to the Grand Lodge by April 10th.
This amount, based upon our total membership, must be paid on behalf of each member whether or not we have collected their dues.
If you have not already, won’t you please remit your dues now?
If there is some problem or difficulty in doing so at this time, please contact the Master or Secretary today.
Thank You!
Don’t miss out!
Job’s Daughter’s
Bethel #69
Box Dinner Auction
Wednesday, March 5th - 6:00 pm (Just prior to the Business Meeting)
Come have a great time and help support the Job’s Daughter’s at the same time.
Be an Active Member
Be an active member,
The kind that would be missed;
Don't be
just contented
That your name is on the list.
Do
attend the meetings
And mingle with
the crowd;
Don't
just stay at home
And crab both
long and loud.
Do take
an active part.
To help the
lodge along.
And take
time out to visit
A member who is
sick.
Don't
leave the work for just a few
And gripe about
the clique.
There is
quite a program scheduled
That means
success if done,
And it
can be accomplished
With the help of everyone.
So
attend the meeting regularly
And help with hand and heart.
Be an
active member
And take an
active part.
Think
this over, Member
Are we right or
are we wrong?
Be an
active member,
Don't just
belong.
