Greetings - This is an open invitation to all Flathead valley Masons. This coming Thursday Kalispell Lodge # 42 will be hosting an entertaining / educational program featuring a one hour video featuring Wallace Gustler.

Wallace Gustler was the first full time Gunsmith hired by The Williamsburg Historical society in the 1960's. This one hour professionally filmed documentary features Mr. Gustler building from scratch a Colonial era flintlock rifle.

Popcorn and soft drinks will be provided. Attendees are welcome to bring snacks and drinks of their choice. Women and family and friends are welcome and encouraged to attend.
