Calendar of Events

July 2012 News

Greetings Companions, friends, and guests;
Thank you for visiting the blogspot.  The quarterly newsletter inheriently may not provide up to date information due to dates/times changing for events, so check back often. 
Summer is now upon us; families grilling outdoors, walking the dogs, and simply enjoying the sunsets.
This is our time as a council to reflect on the past year and begin a new one.  Thank you to Illustrious Companion Tim Roth and the line of officers serving this last year.  Now we begin a new year.  Our goals must include growth for you as a companion of your council, events encouraging participation of our families, support of the 2nd Arch, and support of the Grand Council to include activities promoting and raising awareness for the Diabetic Kids Camp and the campership programs.
First, we will continue to have a program or guest speaker with the carry in dinner beginning at 6:15pm before our regular stated meetings at 7:30pm on the first Tuesday of each month.  Our programs have included magicians, historical lectures, law enforcement speakers, military veterans programs, and costume period enactors with the kids enjoying the magician, swords and armor.
Second, your attendance at meetings and events is not only important but vital for us to continue as a council, and yes one more companion can make a difference.  Mark your calendar now to attend at least one meeting or event per quarter.  We will have our inspection this year in the Super Excellent Master degree and your part big or little will help.  If you have not attended a meeting in the past two years, why not?  The Success of your Council, Findlay #50 depends on you.
Third, communications for council meetings, special events, dinners etc will continue and be expanded through a calling post system which utilizes a phone message sent to the council members.  Please contact me to have these messages sent to you to receive the most up to date information on council activities.
Fraternally,
Ron Drebert

Everyone should bring a favorite covered dish or dessert. Lunch is at noon and the Arch's Annual meeting will be at 2:00.  There are many activities available for a small fee.  Directions and information can be found by cutting and pasting the following address into your browser:  http://www.ohiocaverns.com/  

The Annual Second Arch meeting at 2:00 PM will be for the purpose of election and installation of Arch officers for the 2013 year. We are looking to strengthen the Second Arch and need an officer core to help make this possible. We need the help of each Council in the Arch, so attend and be a part of this important process. The success of the Arch depends on you!
