FROM THE EAST

Brethren:

Congratulations to Brothers Brian DeLucie, Felix Diaz Jr., Marc Estrada, Keith Morris and Larry Rosen for being raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason. I never tire of seeing the joyous look on the faces of our newly raised Brothers and I wish them every success as they start their journey in the quarries of Freemasonry. I would also like to thank the �Degree team� for another outstanding job and especially W\Kenneth Arango, who was exhausted but stuck it out to the end to deliver a great bible presentation and visiting Masters, W\Jon J. Barral and W\Michael Marmo who also contributed their considerable talents to the degree. There will be photos of our new Master Masons posted on our web site.

This meeting we will have a short Masonic lecture to bring you further light in Masonry and we will ballot on new candidates as well as catch up with some Lodge business that was postponed from our last meeting.

            Ladies Night: April 21, 2007 will be our Ladies Night. Tickets are now available. The event will include 5 hours open bar, top shelf liquor, cocktail hour, champagne toast, a fine dinner with Viennese hour, a DJ with MC and gifts for the ladies.  Contact the Senior Warden for your tickets. The cost is $75 per person and will be worth every cent.

            Mason of the Year Dinner: Monday, March 26 2007. Please come out to support your District and our Honoree, who will be announced at this communication. Please see the inserted flier for details and make your reservations with the Secretary.

            Special note: There will be a pre-meeting dinner which will start at 6:00pm on the 19th floor. A $10 donation is required. There will be hot food and libations, including potent potables.  May God continue to protect you and your families and grant you health and happiness. May He also protect the men and women of our armed services and return them home soon.

I look forward to seeing you at the meeting.

With warm regards,

Brother Michael F. Estrada
