Greetings, Brother!

Please see attached Lodge Notice for September, which outlines our upcoming Stated Meeting on September 18.

Prior to the Stated Meeting, we will be holding a dinner at 5:45 p.m. in the lower level of the Consistory Building. Please contact me no later than SUNDAY, SEPT. 14 to make a reservation. Suggested donation for the dinner is $15.00.

Also, I wanted to pass along this reminder of the upcoming 100th Anniversary dinner of Pilgrim Chapter of DeMolay (please see attached) on Sept. 28, which reservations due no later than Sept. 12. Tickets for that event are $35 per person/$60 per couple or $250 for a table of 8 seats.

We also received a dispensation to confer all three degrees on Saturday, October 18, starting at 9 a.m. The petitioner, Joshua Robert Macomber, is a student at West Virginia University. This is a great opportunity for those members who have not seen any of the degrees conferred, and to show our welcome to this new member, on a Saturday during the day.

Lastly, the October notice – which will be mailed to all members, even those receiving notices only by email – will include the annual dues notice. Dues for 2026 will be $130, and can be paid online through your page on Grand View (the PA Grand Lodge website). Those members who are 50 year members do not owe dues, and your 2026 dues card will automatically be mailed to you on November 1.

Following the stated meeting, our Stewards will treat us to the traditional strawberries and ice cream feast.

Lastly, to ensure that your address, phone number and e-mail addresses are up-to-date with the Lodge, all Members are encouraged to visit, open and access your individual member account on the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania’s website.
