Hello Ladies:.....

First of all I want to thank all of you loyal supporters who attended our Mothers' Day Dinner and also to thank Andy DeCaro for doing an excellent job. Once again he has proven to be a great "chef" and came through with flying colors.

On Stated Meeting Night, June 2nd we ladies will be attending 50 year presentations to Magnolia Park lodge members who have reached that goal in their lifetime. Wow! 50 years of devotion and loyalty to the Masonic Order. What a privilege for us to be present on this auspicious occasion. We will then be dismissed and will play Bingo for the balance of the evening. It has been a while since we last played and everyone who attended seemed to enjoy it.

We need your help in submitting any ideas for future womens' projects/entertainment on Stated Meeting Nights. We are open to any and all of your suggestions. Our attendance is increasing and we want it to continue.

Looking forward to seeing you at the June Stated Meeting
