From the South:
The next couple of months are going to very exciting around the lodge.
In May we will be having another mystery trip by our own Worshipful Mike. If you missed the last one, oh well. I am sure Mike will make this upcoming one just as fun if not better the last year’s.
There are rumors of a District Bar B Que at the Masonic homes. This is a new idea I believe thought up by Wor. Tom Doyle where all four lodges from the 373rd District get together and have a picnic. The four lodges are Downey United, Metropolitan, Bellflower and Artesia Sunrise. Look for the date of this picnic coming up.
In June we are going to Las Vegas and help Vegas Lodge celebrate there 100th birthday. Also, we are going to confer the 3rd degree on one of our candidates while we are there. This will be on June 6, 7 & 8th. I hope you are going!
Also in June we are going to have a picnic and softball game. This event is going to include all members of the lodge and all of the youth groups.
The softball game will be the lodge members against the youth groups. Even if you don’t want to play this should be fun to watch and laugh at.
Get your western attire out again I heard there might be a western night including singer at our family night in June.
Also, rumors are that Downey United Lodge has won the first round of ritual competition!
Keep checking your tresleboard and the web site http://www.downeyunited220.org for these and other events at and around the lodge.
You should attend lodge, you certainly can’t say it’s boring at the lodge!
See you at the Lodge….
