Greetings Brethren,
July started as another busy month for us. It started by feeding the Balloon Fest crews and committee people on the 10th. Because we served so late, it was decided then, to serve between 4:00 and 4:45, “if asked next year” they said it would be better for them also. I want to thank Brother’s Mike Parent, Mike Butler, Moe Davison, Herb Hurlbut, James Hurlbut and Jim Carmichael, for all they did.
      Next was our Annual Lodge Picnic. A good time was had by all, we didn’t have as many attend as in the past, (we think it may have been the heat). Maybe next year we should have it earlier due to “cabin fever” or later in early fall to cap off all of the summer activities, it is something to think about for next year. And again a big thanks to all who contributed food, drinks, did the set, cooking and cleanup. Next is our Annual “Feast for Adams Rib” which was a sellout almost as fast as the tickets were printed. Thanks to Bro Hatfield for his printing of the tickets. It should be another great time.
     In August we have the DARE breakfast on the 8th.  7:00am till 10:00am
    Officer Martin (Henniker DARE Officer) will be at our August Stated to present us with a certificate.
     Reminder-Our Annual Visitation is coming up on the 25th of
August. Let’s have a great turnout, it’s your Lodge. And next is
Harmony’s Annual “Past Masters Banquet” on August 28th, this is also another great time for all. More info to follow on this one.


                                                                                               
Fraternally Yours,
                                                            Gerald K. Classon W.M.
Greetings Brethren,
     As I have traveled toward the East I have had the pleasure of meeting many of the Brothers of Harmony Lodge. I look forward to meeting others whom I have yet to meet in person but have heard their names warmly mentioned while visiting with Brothers, enjoying the fellowship during the meal before our Stated Meetings, at the various functions we have at the Lodge and while doing our charitable works throughout the community.
      I have also have had the privilege of bringing several new Masons along from that 1st knock on the door of the Lodge  to them sitting in various chairs as they too travel toward the east. Knowing that they too are proud to be Masons and to be called Brother.
      So if you have not been able to make it to Lodge in awhile come meet your new Brothers who we will also be equally pleased to meet you and to reacquaint yourself with those Brothers that you have shared so much with over the years past.

Fraternally
James I. Hurlbut SW

Brethren,
     I had the privilege of presenting Harmony Lodge # 38 F&AM a Certificate of Appreciation at our last Stated on July 21, 2010. The Certificate was from the Scottish Rite membership committee for the use of the Lodge and support for a spaghetti supper. 

Fraternally,
Your Scottish Rite Rep.
