I was just notified of an EA Degree to take place on Tuesday, June 24th. The new group of candidates (count them) FIVE of them are all shipping back out of the USCG Cutter at the end of the week. If your in the area, please attend. We just put another from the cutter through last year. Maybe they are getting the fever.

Monday, June 23, a trip to Gaylord for 2 MM's.
Thursday, June 26th, Table Lodge in Rogers City.
Monday, July 14th 3-4 EA Candidates at Indian River Lodge.

Leadership Training hits the North!
Finally we in the north and our knowledgeable PGM Bob Conley had gotten the dates set for his Masonic Leadership course written by John Maxwell. The 21 irrefutable laws of leadership will be presented on a two day course in August on the 16th and 30th. - Fine job by me, scheduling it on my anniversary, I'm sure I have only heard the beginning of this mistake. Both dates are Saturdays and will be all day classes. We will have lunch served at the Oasis for the class.
For those of those in the North, please let me know in advance if you plan on attending so we plan for lunch. Purchase of John Maxwell's book by the same title is required for the class, but I have found a local store that will give us a decent group discount and they are available at on line sites also. This class is open to all of our masonic bodies, size is only limited by the Lodge room size.

2008 Grand Lodge
The Grand Lodge session was held at the Detroit Masonic Temple over the last weekend in May. Still an incredible building. Brought back many memories of going there as child with my family to see concerts and plays. We owe our gratitude to Mr. Ilitch and Olympia entertainment for their interest in the building and their assistance at bringing it back to life.
Thursday brought me to my first Deputy District Instructor meeting. A very good program that provided lots of information for us to bring back to our Lodges. Thank you to Bro. Elwin Brown for serving as my Grand Lecturer and I wish him well as he steps aside from his post. Additional congratulations to RWB Eddie Steffne for taking the open chair.
Grand Lodge started on Friday and continued through Saturday with introductions of guests from across the world and reports from our appendent bodies. Handling of business started on Saturday and continued throughout the day.
Back home we are preparing for a FC Degree this week followed with 4 new candidates being brought to EA to follow.
MICHiPs events for the Indian River Summerfest downtown and the north rest area for MICHiPs and coffee rest stop on August 22 for the annual Mackinaw City corvette show.
