Trestle Board July 2021

Brethren,

As we go dark in the lodge, I am appreciative of all we have been able to do and the great things to come later this year. We have another celebration of the lodge on September 11th to come. I will be working actively to get the details sorted out and let you know with enough notice. We have our dinner to celebrate the significant women in the lives of the brothers that support and give us the opportunity to meet together.

In addition we have a special Entered Apprentice Degree that we are conferring on July 7th at 7PM. All of these activities I pray we can attend in person and safely, which seemed less likely just a few months ago. Let us be thankful for the winding down of the pandemic and hope that all of us and ours can continue to be safe in the future. In addition to the activities, we are still working on several fundraising efforts for the lodge. We have this year's challenge coin, any monetary donation directly for the Entryway Refresh, and a raffle and silent auction to come. Sometimes it seems that Masons always have our hands out, but keep in mind this is to build our building and the home of Masonry in Littleton. I am sure the brothers are grateful for all of the efforts and funds that will make this project possible.

Lastly, as the first half of this year winds down, I want to offer a heartfelt gratitude for all of the brothers. I couldn't have asked for better officers, better brothers, and a better year. You have made my year as Master a wonderful experience and I hope that we continue the activities and fellowship in our lodge for many years to come. It has been an honor to serve, and I look forward to a few more months of serving the lodge.

Fraternal Greetings,
Bro. Benjamin
Worshipful Master
