At Chapter 43's Table Chapter, some items were auctioned off, with the proceeds to go towards the Ronald McDonald House.

One item, a plaque inset with stone taken from "Solomon's Quarries", garnered much interest and was the hot item of the evening. To sweeten the pot, the MEGHP said that if the bidding reached a certain threshold, he would take a picture with the winner and the plaque.

Congratulations to Companion Tyler D. Barto, PHP, winner of the auction!

The Grand Officers made an Official Visit to Chapter No. 43 last night, who met in the social hall at Ephrata Lodge No. 665 for the purpose of holding a Table Chapter.

The event was well attended, and the MEGHP was reminded that the hourglass was there to ensure that his comments were succinct.....

Many thanks for the hospitality shown to us, and congratulations on a fine event!

Companions,

It was reported at Chapter 43's Table Chapter that ticket sales for this event were lagging.

The good news is, there is still time to fix that! The MEGHP will be attending (in costume), which is something that you aren't going to want to miss! The best part is, you don't need to be a member of the Craft to attend! Bring your friends, bring your family, bring anyone who is interested in a night of good fun and silliness!

If you don't want to pay the Ticketmaster service fee, contact Companion Jack Harley, DDGHP, directly and he'll set you up.

It's for a good cause, so let's come together as a fraternity to support this event and make this fundraiser a success!

Before the June Grand Chapter Communication this weekend in New Castle, the members of Steel City Chapter, Order of DeMolay, presented the Ceremony of Light.

Many thanks to these young men for taking the time to attend and share what they do with members of the Grand Chapter.

If you know of a young man who is between the ages of 9 and 21 who could benefit from a program that builds confidence, teaches leadership and public speaking, and offers an opportunity to make lifelong friends, look no further. https://pademolay.org/ Pennsylvania DeMolay
