                          JUNE 2013
       
From the East
   Aloha all, as we swing into June, the year is nearing the
halfway point, and summer will soon be upon us.  It has been a
very busy spring, with several new Brothers initiated.  I must
congratulate Brother Ben Spencer our Junior Warden, who has
done a great job sitting in the East during the Entered Apprentice
conferrals.
   We also completed the Annual Communications of the Grand
Lodge of Hawaii in Honolulu, with Worshipful Lee Meyerson,
Right Worshipful Mike Baker and me, together with our wives, in
attendance.  While we were hard at work doing the Lodge’s
business, the ladies were doing a complete survey of the sites
and shopping malls of Oahu.
   At this month’s Stated Meeting dinner on June 5, we will have
a special memorial presentation to honor the memory of
Worshipful Brother Bill Mallion, who was primarily responsible
for the construction of our Lodge.  We voted to dedicate the
dining hall to his memory, and we have a new plaque to place
there to honor Bill’s contribution to Kona Lodge.  We will have
Bill’s lady, Jean Mallion, in attendance, and I would like to see a
good turnout for this memorable event.

SPECIAL NOTICE:
    •        We will be holding a First Degree this month on
    Wednesday, June 19 starting with dinner @ 6:00 then
    degree at 7:00 PM.
    •        We will be holding a triple Fellowcraft degree this
    month on Saturday, June 29, starting at 10:00 AM.  Lunch
    will be served between the first and second sections of the
    degree conferral.  This is being done to accommodate some
    scheduling issues, as well as to provide an opportunity for
    more of the Brothers of Kona Lodge to attend, especially
    those that don’t drive at night, or don’t want to stay out too
    late in the evening.  We hope that there will be a great turn
    out to send our new Brothers further on their Masonic
    Journey.
    Fraternally,
    Dan Miller, P.M.
    Master

    Aloha from the West
    Here it is June already!  We have had a very active year with
degrees and our officers are doing awesome work. There is
always a need for more people to help, especially during a 3rd
degree.
   We have many new masons coming in and if you haven’t
attended lodge recently, you should. We need to welcome these
men and show them what masonry is about. Many get
discouraged when they first join and we should all be there to
show them fine fellowship.
    See you soon in Lodge

    Senior Warden
