WIDOWS DINNER
Saturday, 06 June 2015, 5:00 p.m.
The Green Derby
846 York St., Newport, KY 41076
WE NEED RESERVATIONS BY Wed., June 03.
Please call R.C. Cooper, (859) 391-0834 to make
reservations. Widows' dinners are complimentary,
covered by the lodge. Dutch treat for others, as usual.
If you have not attended lodge in a while, we have
many exciting things in the works. In June, we are
taking our widows out to dinner. Please accompany us to make this a special dinner for them. At the
outdoor raising, we are doing the long version of
the Legend of the Temple. If you can help, please
let someone know as we want to make a good
showing for Colonel Clay in front of the district. In
July, we are having Christmas in July for the Girls
Home. On Oct. 03, 2015, we will have a golf outing at Kenton County Golf Course. We will have
door prizes, a shotgun giveaway and a prize for a
hole in one, the longest drive and the longest putt.
We will have a dinner after the event. We need
hole sponsors, donations for door prizes and as
many golfers as possible. Please help make this
event a success. If you have any questions please
call me at cell (859) 466-9342 or home 356-0281.
Don't forget, we need your help placing flags at
Linden Grove this month.
My brothers, we have the ability to do so many
wonderful things. Some of which require us to get
out of our comfort zone, even if it's not the way it
was always done.
If you agree with what we are doing, please help
us. If not, please come up with your own ideas.
Either way, Colonel Clay Lodge will benefit.
Please let us not forget our oath and obligation and
help our brothers in need. Remember our widows,
support and attend your lodge, take care of your
love ones and set a shining example for the world
as to what kind of man a Mason really is. Together, we are a special group of men. Let's bond together and show what we are capable of. If you
can't make it to lodge, please attend the monthly
dinners. We would love to see you. You'll enjoy a
good dinner and some great company.
Fraternally thine,
Donald R. Kaiser
Congratulations to Bro. Marion Scott Roberts,
who was reinstated. Also congratulations to Bro.
Yonatan Greenberg, who was elected to membership by affiliation. We hope to see both of
you in lodge soon!
