Brethren,

I hope that your holiday season was very special for you and your family. Now that the new year is upon us, it is time that we resume our labors and take to the mission at hand. Our first district event of the new year will be the LEO Workshop and Ritual Meeting; which will be held this Saturday January 7, 2012 at Fielding Lodge No. 192 in South Charleston, Ohio. The LEO Workshop will begin at 9:00 am, followed by a tiled meeting (MM) in which the type written ritual will be available for review and questions. Please take the opportunity to refine your ritual work by asking questions and correcting those common mistakes in pronunciation and misused words.

The inspection season begins officially on Friday January 13, 2012 at Anthony Lodge No. 455. Dinner will be served at 6:15 pm with Lodge opening at 7:30 pm in the Entered Apprentice Degree.

Additionally, please make note of the Washington DC Bus Trip; which will be held the weekend of April 6-8. There are still seats available and you can reserve yours today by visiting the district website.

Lodges who wish to have articles or upcoming events published can submit them to the webmaster for publishing on the 9th District Website. Please check the website often for news and information from around the district.

Fraternally,

Charles A. Dyer, PM
President
9th District Officers Association
