A New Year

Welcome to my blog! My name is Bradley Adamson and I'm the newly elected Master of the Lodge. I have created this blog so that I can express my views and hear from my brethren on the many issues that will come up this year. This blog will be very informal (i.e. I'm not going to go through a lot of trouble checking my spelling and grammar.) I hope to hear from you, my brother in Masonry. I want to learn your concerns, hear your advice, and understand your feelings.
This year marks 150 years of service to our community. It is my hope that this year we will not only continue to provide that service, but to increase it. In November, we will celebrate the 150th year anniversary with a Homecoming event. I'm hoping to have a visit from the Grand Lodge. I'm still working out the details, but I assure you it will be a great time to celebrate masonry and our lodge's many successful years.
This year I have two major goals. First, and most importantly, I am hoping to unite us and Nettleton Lodge for a fund-raising event sometime this year. It is my goal to see our lodges put aside old grudges and hurts and move us into a time of unity and brotherly love. Secondly, I am hoping to start a scholarship fund for local schools. In a time when the economy is in the gutter and tuition cost are on the rise, more and more students are in need of financial support. I'm hoping we can help provide that support. Thank you and I'm looking forward to a great year.
