FROM THE EAST

Dear Brethren:

            Happy New Year to all and welcome back to Lodge. We closed out last year with a successful Table Lodge that was attended by 54 Brothers and guests. Pictures of the event are on our web site, www.HST1066.com.

            I was fortunate enough to meet and visit with our Brothers at the Florida Luncheon. I had a great time thanks to the wonderful job done by the R\W\�s Harold Cohen and Nat Savlowitz.          

            This meeting we will confer the sublime degree of Master

Mason to those justly entitled to receive the same. Please come out to support your Brothers as they finish their degree work.

            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.

Considering the success of the Annual Picnic and the Table Lodge, I can assure you that I have left the best for last. You will not want to miss this event. Contact me or the Secretary for your tickets. The cost is $75 per person and will be worth every cent.

            Mason of the Year: There is never an easy choice for this annual honor. We are blessed with so many deserving Brothers. But after consulting the Lodge leaders and Past Masters, asking the �Magic 8 Ball� for guidance and giving this so much consideration, I will be able to announce Harry S Truman�s Mason of the Year at our February 1st communication.

            Special note: There will not be a pre-meeting dinner due to the Electrical Square Club meeting. 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

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SAD TIDINGS:

Bro. Nathan Tallen; init. 2-10-53, passed 2-24-53, raised 5-12-53,

died 5-29-06.

May their souls rest in everlasting peace.

 

Secretary�s Message: We have finally received the new dues cards from Grand Lodge and I am sending them out as soon as I process your dues payments. If you sent in a payment and you haven�t received a dues card yet, please contact me and I will check out the information. Thanks to all who have paid their dues already. Remember, what ever donation is added to the dues payment helps offset the expenses of the Lodge so we don�t have to raise the dues each year.

Something not to be missed: On Saturday, February 24th, Grand Lodge will perform a complete Hiramic Drama in the Grand Lodge room starting at 8:30am. This will be followed by a presentation of the December Rose Degree, part of the Scottish Rite degrees. These events are open to all Master Masons.
