What a great time you had going to Gettysburg to witness the LOW VALE DEGREE CONFERRAl (FellowCraft Degree). We made a day of it visiting historical locations thanks to RW Charlie Kurowsky as our excellent tour guide. Juliano C. Pereira Nelson Powel Juan Soto Ron Leard Ilan Baicher
From The famous Gettysburg Electric Map, which once anchored the Rosensteel Museum, has been fully restored with modern LED lights and is now located in downtown Hanover, Pennsylvania. It sits about 14 miles east of Gettysburg at 22 Carlisle Street. Then to a not the world famous hot dog place. We then made our way over to Gettysburg National Cemetery is a U.S. national cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, established for Union soldiers killed at the Battle of Gettysburg, and is the site where President Abraham Lincoln delivered his famous Gettysburg Address at its dedication in 1863. It serves as the final resting place for over 6,000 U.S. soldiers and veterans from the Civil War through the Vietnam War, with more than 3,500 of the interred being from the Battle of Gettysburg itself. The cemetery is known for its semi-circular design, the Soldiers' National Monument, and the Rostrum, a speaker's platform used by many dignitaries, including Lincoln.

Brethren, what an amazing evening! It is not every night we have the privilege of raising two Master Masons: Brother Rami S. and Brother David J. Soto. It was a truly special honor for me to raise my own son.

Thank you to all the officers who participated and made the degree possible. I want to give a special shout-out to RW Michael Loiacono for delivering a Third Degree Lecture that will not soon be forgotten. Finally, a very special thank you to Most Worshipful Leonard Vander Horn for his invaluable assistance.

🦀 First Annual Spring Crab Fest: A Massive Success! 🦀
What an incredible night! We kicked off our First Annual Spring Crab Fest at the South River Level Club, and it was everything we hoped for—and more.

We had a full house, with friends and guests traveling from far and wide to join us. The room was at 100% capacity, the atmosphere was electric, and the crabs were fantastic!

📢 Pro-tip for next year: Since we were packed to the rafters, make sure to get your tickets and arrive early! We clearly have a hit on our hands.

A very special thank you to Charlie Kurowsky for everything he did to help make this event run smoothly. We couldn't have done it without you.

To everyone who came out to support the Level Club—thank you. We’re already looking forward to making next year’s fest even bigger and better!
