Brethren:

            I would like to take this opportunity to thank WB Barry Ellsworth and his team of officers for installing me in the oriental chair in the East and the other Officers for the year 2010. It was great to see so many brethren and guest witnessing this event with about 75 in attendance at the banquet with guest speaker, RWB Owen Walton.

            Keith Lodge is about to become very active. On February 3rd, we will be doing our annual reports, balloting on two new candidates, having Masonic Education with recently raised Bro. Rick Cormier, and another edition of the Master’s Word. RWB Ed Burridge ,DDGM of District #2,  will also be making his official visit  to Keith Lodge. As part of our continuing Education Program, all members of Keith Lodge are encourage to volunteer to present us with a one or two minute explanation of something masonic. What can you do to help Keith Lodge?

              In the coming weeks, we will be practicing for a first degree with eight new candidates to initiate during the months of March and April. Your officers will be working diligently to exemplify this degree to a high standard that Keith Lodge expects.

           I will be continuing my visitations to other Lodges in District 2 and 7 weather permitting and if you are interested in joining me and some of the Officers, please call and connect with one of us so we can travel together. Our DDGM’s for 2 & 7 will be holding phase two of their Training Sessions on Feb. 1 at Coverdale Lodges. The Officers especially the Master and Wardens are urged to attend but all other officers and brethren are invited to come along.

            I look forward to seeing you all at the February 3rd communication. Once again, if you need a drive to Lodge, please call me or one of the officers.

Warmest Fraternal Regards, WB Leigh Manning
Worshipful Master, Keith Lodge #23
