My Dear Brethren,
The Grand Lodge of Ohio year is half over and the inspection season is quickly winding down. The District Deputy Grand Masters are reviewing their assigned Lodges’ records, making certain that the Lodges are complying with the Grand Lodge Code per their charter. These Right Worshipful Brethren do a fantastic job representing me in the 25 districts here in Ohio.
The combination of Lady Karen’s love of elephants, and our connection to her past career of teaching reading and language, along with our grandson’s dyslexia, led us to choose our charity this year – Children’s Dyslexia Centers of Ohio.
Lady Karen’s Pin this year is a colorful elephant – her Lady – based on a painted ceramic elephant from her daughter. This lady doesn’t have a name yet. Would you like to help name this special Lady and help the Dyslexia Centers at the same time? Buy a raffle ticket for the opportunity to name this special Lady.
The drawing will be done at the last reception of the year, June 8, 2024, at the Ninth District Grand Master’s Reception. The drawing will be done live on Facebook on the “GL24Ohio Travel” page. That night we will call the winner to find out what name they have chosen for Lady Karen’s Elephant. We will personally deliver the newly named elephant to the winner.
Help us name Karen’s Lady and benefit the Dyslexia Centers.
Tickets are $1.00 per ticket or $5.00 for 6. If you wish to purchase tickets by mail, please send your checks to the Grand Lodge Office at 1 Masonic Drive, Springfield, Ohio 45504. Please make checks payable to “Grand Lodge Charitable Foundation” and put “CDC ” in the memo section. We will get your tickets added to the pot. Thank you for your consideration.
Yours in Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth,
Paul A. Weglage
Grand Master
