A Message from the 2nd Vice President

I hope my article finds you healthy and staying indoors, in these uncertain times.

Instead of hosting sociating activities, events, and catered meals, we are working to provide from telephone contact to teleconferencing; from Skype to now Zoom to reach out to members.

I encourage members to check the National Supreme Lodge Website on scheduled presentation by National Membership Commission, such as using Zoom as your communications.

Social and physical isolation is one of the greatest ills of this pandemic.

It appears that businesses are opening in our communities and that soon,a we well be back to “semi normal”.

Thank you to the United Lodges of the San Joaquin Valley for their support and donation this year of $10,000.00 to: Valley Children’s Healthcare Medical Genetics Metabolic Clinic (MGM) formerly Birth Defects Library.

Bocce Camp for Kids – Congratulations to the Shasta Lodge #2453 for their participation in the Summer Camp activities at South City Park to show kids about the great game of bocce.

Lastly, thanks to the lodges for their continued support and their generosity of donations given to the various charities that are donated at Convention each year, thus making it possible for the Grand Lodge to continuing to support the charities.

Ciao – until next month
