IONIC LODGE #31 REGULAR MEETING - FEBRUARY 9, 2018

Brethren, we held our regular meeting on Friday 9th. at 7:30pm. We were fortunate to have 3 Visitors form Unity/Kilwinning #73, Unity, including their W. Bro. Bill Swiderski, who was invited to sit in the East with our W.M. Always to have visitors.  During our opening, our W.M. ordered the Pass Grip and Pass Word in the Second Degree, be taken by our Deacons. During Good & Welfare, the annual exchange of the Principal Officer Lapel Pins took place.

Our annual Temple Co. Meeting was conducted after the Lodge Meeting. The problem of  a steady increase in City Property Taxes was discussed.  We are being Taxed as a Commercial Property, when in fact, we are not a Commercial Property, and need some relief from the City in this regard.

Lapel Pin Exchange: J.W.,  Bro. Art Galman; S.W., V.W. Bro. Bernie Meisner; W.M., W. Bro. Mark Barclay; I.P.M., R.W.Bro. Kevin Monsebroten.
