Trestleboard, September 2018 Mountain City Lodge No. 67 - Lexington, Virginia From the East Brethren, As we head in to the time of year where the holidays start to look large, we also begin to look forward to the change over of officers for the upcoming year. At Mountain City we have tried to maintain a stable line, although sometimes life has gotten in the way.  If our Senior Warden asks you to step up to the next seat, please give him your support. Serving as a seated officer is a rewarding experience as you learn more of our rituals, and it shows the way for newer Masons. As I get to visit other areas of the country for our Festivals, I get to speak to Brethren from all over the place. It's fascinating to discuss the variations in ritual and how our Fraternity makes such a difference in our communities. Let's continue to increase our exposure in and around Lexington, because by doing that we will continue to attract good men to be Masons.   Fraternally, John Morman Worshipful Master 2018 Royal Arch & Knights Templar September Events Chapter & Conclave Meetings - Monday 9/17, 6:15 dinner, 7pm meetings Programs – History of the “Mark” and the Select & Royal Masters Degrees October Events Chapter & Conclave Meetings - Monday 10/15, 6:15 dinner, 7pm meetings Program – Review of the Most Excellent Master Degree & Signs York Rite & Brotherhood BBQ – open to all Masons!
