Last Meeting
We last met on Friday, May 3rd at 7:30pm. We had a “Brothers Eve” dinner at 1:00pm that was hosted by Brother Eric and other brothers. All who came enjoyed the feast of cabbage and pot roast. Then we had a business meeting where we were led by our President Eric Johansson. We had some lively discussions and were informed about Gala Celebration on June 2nd that celebrates the 100th year of our Lodge. You can see our new logo above!
Next Meeting
The next meeting will be on Friday, September 6th at 7:30pm. Before the meeting we will have a Sister’s Eve dinner which starts at 6:30 pm. We will be still glowing after our wonderful 100th Anniversary Gala Event on June 2nd. As always, following the meeting there will be a Coffee Hour.
It is fun to see the Norwegian flag flying for our meetings. See a picture of it at right.
