Supporting the Community with Friendship, Morality, and Brotherly Love

Trestleboard: December 2020 Mountain City Lodge No. 67 - Lexington, Virginia From the East Brethern, Is 2020 over yet? Almost Brothers, Almost! Even though this has been a difficult year, Mountain City Lodge still found a way to move forward. At the beginning of the year, we had Boy Scout Night, Membership Recognition Night, several degree practices, and raised four Master Masons. Although we did not know that after our March 2nd Stated Meeting that our Lodge would be closed through July, decisions were made to renovate the Lodge. The Officers and Trustees agreed to move forward with me to complete the first phase which included hiring an interior decorator that helped us transform our Lodge to look new and historic! We returned back to our Stated Meetings in July and everyone was excited to get back to see each other and the renovations. On October 3, our Lodge hosted the District One Day Conferral and we raised five additional Master Masons. In November we had Step Up Night and all of our officers did a great job in their new positions. The highlight of our stated meeting was recognizing RW Gerry Locher for his many contributions to Mountain City, Masonry in general and we celebrated his 20th anniversary for his service as the 2000 Grand Commander of the Knights Templar in Virginia. For this month we have our election and installation at our Stated Meeting and our annual Christmas Dinner scheduled to take place Friday, December 11 at the Natural Bridge Hotel. I want to thank all of the brethren for your support over the past two years. It has truly been an honor to serve Mountain City Lodge No. 67 as your Worshipful Master. I had tremendous support from so many members, all of the Past Masters and I want to specifically thank our Secretary, RW Jesse Lyons for all of his help, work ethic, many daily Lodge discussions, and administering and keeping our Lodge moving forward the past two years! I am very excited about our new officers taking over for 2021. I have no doubt that Brother McNeil will do an outstanding job as Worshipful Master and will continue to move our Lodge forward! I toast to you all, “Friendship, Morality and Brotherly Love” and I wish everyone a Merry Christmas!
