Exalted Ruler, Ron James, has been out of the Lodge for several weeks due to his wife’s illness and has been unable to participate in Lodge activities. The Lodge wants to thank DDGER Steve Lobdell and all of the outside guests that attended the DDGER visitation and dinner on October 16. The Lodge received positive accolades regarding the direction we are headed. We all enjoyed a delicious dinner provided by Keith Cool and we had 4 new members initiated.
