Masters Message from the East
MARCH 2010
The Sweethearts Dinner was a
special occasion this year, with Tina Olin playing the piano following dinner,
this lady plays beautifully, and knows every song that you can think of. It
really made the evening something that the Sweethearts would remember for a
long time. My thanks go out to Virgil Shoemaker, my Senior Warden, for finding
Tina and bringing her here to play for us. I am indebted to you again Virgil!
It was nice to see George and
Annabelle Pope, thanks for coming over. And it was great to see Jack and Elaine
Hodge.
Allan Miller prepared a wonderful
meal of chicken fried steak, Allan has his own recipe, it’s a little different,
and very good! Sandra and Tommy Luce decorated the dinning room and it looked
great. Also thanks to all the servers
for helping out, you made everything come together.
We had 7 sweethearts with us this
year, Lee Nalbandian, Ana Cole, Louise Rambo, Virginia Bennett, Ola Mae Smith,
Beulah Oldham and Ruth Davidson.
Our next dinner will be for the
Public Schools Night, Tuesday April 13th. Fell free to attend, call
for reservations.
The winners of the 10 schools
will be there reading their essays, and two of them will receive new Bikes.
It’s a fun night come on over if you can.

Master
TULARE COMMANDERY NO. 66, KNIGHTS
TEMPLAR
Sir
Knights:
Our next conclave is Wednesday,
March 3, 2010, at 7:30 P.M. We will not have a potluck this month. Please come
out in your uniform and or dark suit with you swords so we can have another
great meeting.
Our potluck and meeting in
February was well attended. We had eleven Sir Knights present and four of our
ladies joined us also. Bill Gouveia was under the weather and unable to attend.
Chester and
Carol were unable to attend as Carol had another special event. There was lots of good food and fellowship.
Spaghetti seemed to be the hot dish of choice this month with all kinds of
goodies to complement the meal.
Dick Wolfe and Bill Ferguson were
installed to their 2010 office. David Higdon was Installing Officer and I was
Installing Marshall. We now have a full company of officers. Thank you Sir
Knights for coming out.
By the time you receive this
Message, hopefully we have had a successful practice with our swords, on
February 18, 2010, at 6:30 P.M. It will take practice to become proficient with
the sword work.
Hope to see all the Knights,
Wednesday, March 3, 2010, at 7:30 for our meeting. We will be discussing a
possible dues increase, so plan to attend this meeting. The last dues increase
was in 2006 (a loooong time ago).

High Priest’s Message
Companions:
Please try to
make it to our March conclave, we are going to have discussion and voting on
raising the dues.
The $30.00 is just barley enough
to pay the per capita, and assessments, we're running out of money to pay the
rent.
It appears that we need to double
the current amount, and we still need a fund raiser, a “spaghetti feed",
or something.
Anyway we need your input on what to do!!!
We missed companions Dick Parks
and Bill Ferguson at our last meeting, we hope that you're both well.
Don’t
forget we will be having a pot-luck before the meeting at 6:30 pm.
I hope to see everyone at our next stated Conclave, Wednesday,
March 10th.
Robert E. Myers, High Priest
