I'll be up there Friday and Saturday.

I would love for my Lodge to have one of these. Let me know what you need to make it happen.

Congrats!

Congratulations Brother. I am glad you had a great experience.

Congrats.

I think you have some good thoughts there Hugh. I don't have a good answer for you but you give a lot to think about. Currently I am wanting to make more use of my lodge's FBook page in the near future, to remind Brothers about upcoming degrees, meetings nights, meal menus and the like.

Hugh, are you thinking that FBook might not be allowed because there are ads on the site?

That is interesting. I am Sr Steward at my lodge this year. We had our first meal last night and we cleared about $40 after 80+ people were served and expenses were paid. What do your stewards do if there is an overage for a given night? Use it to offset expenses from nights that the kitty...

Congrats! Build em strong!

Since my Lodge scheduled the Installation of Officers on the July 4th weekend, RW T.K. Anthony added a few elements to the usual presentation. The first patriotic piece he recited was The American's Creed by William Tyler Page, "I believe in the United States of America, as a government...

RW T.K. Anthony delivered this toast yesterday, during our Installation of Officers. It was memorable and moving, so I thought I would share. "Toast to the Flag", by John Jay Daly Here's to the red of it - There's not a thread of it, No, nor a shred of it In all the spread of...

Glad to hear you had a good 4th of July. Thanks for making the same possible for the rest of us.

My lodge is big enough that it ends up being a 6+ year trip to the East once a guy decides/is asked to get in the line. We seem to only lose one or two guys in the line in any given year. We also have members who join one of the nearby country lodges and go through the line there. I have seen...

I will be going in as the Senior Steward for the upcoming year.

Greetings from Austin. I grew up closer to your neck of the woods, in Burleson.

I was behind a truck on I-35 tonight. (He was driving very nicely, thank you very much) I glanced at his plate and noticed it was a Texas Knights of Columbus plate and I got to wondering if they had these same discussions when they decided to start up a license plate.

One immediate benefit is that GLOT receives $22 per plate per year. So it ends up being a way for Grand Lodge to fill the coffers. And maybe it will be a permanent reminder for the Brothers to behave out on the public roads.

Saw a proto-type of the plate last night at our Stated meeting. The Grand Treasurer mentioned that they might be for sale within a month!

Welcome and say "Hi" to my dad for me! He is the Secretary @ Burleson 649.

SUV. Because I really wanted a car that rides like a truck :(
