Meeting Room Gets New Window Coverings

Window Coverings 1
Window Coverings 2
Window Coverings 3

The lodge room received a huge facelift today when new window coverings were installed.  One close look at the old curtains was all it took to understand this change was long overdue.

Ryan Hite graciously donated curtains, purchased with his winnings from the last poker night.  Ryan's mother Mary stepped up to select and iron the new curtains.  Mark Costello (with Mary's help) gets an assist for the installation. You all are Awesome!

A huge thank you to all involved in making this happen!

MASTER'S MESSAGE

Masters note for December

“Set your course by the stars,
not by the lights of every passing ship.”
Brother Omar Bradley

My Brothers as my year as master comes to a close I would like to thank each and every one of you for a great year I will always remember. Weston Lodge does set its course by the stars keeping a true course in masonry. So as we would say after flying hot air balloons. “May the winds welcome you with softness. May the sun bless you with its warm rays. May you fly so high and so well God joins you in your laughter and set you gently back into the loving arms of Mother Earth.” 

With brotherly love
Worshipful Master and soon to be Junior Past
Steve O'Donnell

Breakfast to Honor Veterans 11.10.2018

Weston Lodge #22 invited active duty military and veterans to attend a complimentary all you can eat breakfast on November 10, 2018 to honor their service to our country.

Thirty one active duty military and veterans honored the lodge by attending the breakfast.  Also attending the event were members of the local masonic chapters, the local Littleton community and Fox31 news.  The active duty military and veterans attending the event signed the flag of their service.

The members of Weston Lodge #22 wish to thank the members of the military (past and present ) for all you do.

Fifty and Seventy Year Awards

The November 7, 2018 stated communication was an open lodge event.  It provided a special opportunity to see the presentation of a fifty-year award to Larry Wullbrandt of Weston Lodge #22.  Larry’s wife Jane was in attendance for the presentation of his award.

A seventy-year award was presented to Bill Green of Casper Independence Rock #56.  Three of our brothers from Wyoming including; Thomas Hamm Deputy Grand Master, Wyoming Guernsey Lodge #49; Bill Elmore Worshipful Master, Casper Independence Rock #56; and Weston Hubele Senior Warden, Casper Independence Rock #56 drove from Casper, Wyoming to Weston Lodge #22 for Bill Greens presentation.  The act displayed the strength of brotherhood within the fraternity and reminded all present of our own obligations to our brothers.
