Tonight 11/14- DDGM Visit to Schenevus Valley Lodge (the OTHER SVL). Still no word on dinner, because DDGM questions don't need to be answered :-)

Wednesday 11/16- The DDGM will 'open' the contest page on our district website, and you can start to break the code and find the coins he has hidden throughout the district. (Adam Sokolowski is going to lose)

Next Tuesday 11/22- The REAL SVL, #491, will be starting a new program, our annual Thanksgiving Dinner, where all brothers are invited to attend and give Thanks for what they feel grateful for. Dinner will be served PROMPTLY (Todd) at 6PM. We will be serving Schoharie County's best Roadkill Special with a side of AWESOMNESS.

12/9- Our quarterly Masters and Wardens Meeting at Schenevus Valley Lodge, more details to follow

1/28- Our Annual Charity Ball at Justine's in Cobleskill (more details to follow)

Switching gears...The calling hours for Brother Carl Gottier's sister, Dawn Agnes, will be held from 4-7 PM this Wednesday 11/16, at Betz, Rossi & Bellinger Family Funeral Home- 171 Guy Park Ave in Amsterdam. Again, please let us all keep Carl's family in our thoughts and prayers.

So- DDGM Visits, Degrees, Dinners, Balls, and lots more to do in our District in the next few weeks. I look forward to seeing everyone, and as RW Roy 'Lil Jeff' Bilby said to me today "Be there and be Square" (you don't want to know what he really said, it's unmasonic and I probably deserved it)
