Calling all Brothers! I am looking for ideas regarding our three core tenets for this coming year: Education; Ritual; & Fellowship. Currently the Lodge officers are working toward a more strict adherence to ritual at our meetings and as we rehearse for the coming degree season this spring.

In addition we have taken steps to increase or streamline communication for the Lodge and our Brothers. In the coming weeks (for those of you with access to the Internet) you will notice a new look to our website and more reports coming back from the Grand Lodge Annual Communication (26-27 March in St. Cloud).

In regard to fellowship we have continued to have dinner before each of our meetings as well as stopping by a local establishment afterward. When it comes to fellowship I know, we all know, that there are other possibilities out there to increase our fellowship at Macalester as well as with other Masonic bodies and Lodges.

As thoughts or suggestions come to you please feel free to mention, email or phone any of the sitting Lodge officers. You have our word that we will look seriously at all suggestions as we move further in to the 2010 year.

Fraternally Yours,
WM W. White
