I would like to thank all that were involved with
the planning of the Seaside Lodge Installation of Officers ceremony
and of course a special thanks to the Installing Officers and our
guests.
It is very humbling and a great honor to be selected
to serve as Master of Seaside Lodge #429 for the upcoming year.
With the outstanding slate of officers working with me, I hope to
have a most productive and fun year. Productive in the sense of
fundraising for our philanthropies and our lodge. We also hope to
increase the participation of our membership in these endeavors
as well as increasing our membership. Fun in the sense of fellowship
with our Brothers and Sisters. I hope to increase our membership
and increase the attendance of our lodge by current members.
With high hopes and great expectations I am looking
forward to directing our lodge to a very Happy and prosperous New
Year and I wish you all the same.
The Lodge will conduct our Semi Annual Chicken BBQ
on Saturday 15 May. Tickets are available from the Secretary.
The Seceratry has 2010 Dues cards for all members
of Seaside Lodge.. Please come in and pick up your dues cards
and pay your dues.
Contact the lodge if you need assistance paying your dues. Dues
are $80.00 anually.
