What a nigggghhhhttt at Tampa Bay Lodge #252. First Hector Velez gave back his EA catechism, then Jelani Gorham, Jeremy Orick and Jeff Yeager received their MLT training certificates on top of that Jeremy Orick and Jeff Yeager received their MM 1,2 and 3 proficiency certificates!! We generally have a photo taken after each stated meeting but this photo was taken at our 100th Anniversary and this picture speaks volumes!
