April 2006

From The East

By the time you read this article, we will have seven new Master Masons and seen what Radio was like in days gone by. If you were not present at these events, you missed some special days with Doric Lodge.

Our next meeting, April 4, 2006 will be the LAST in our building. Starting with our April 18th meeting, we will be at Messiah Lutheran Church at 5202 Cottage Grove Rd. Before we move, we will need help from everyone. There will be a garage sale at Doric on March 31st and April 1st, 7th & 8th. WE NEED YOUR HELP on those days as well as before to get ready. After the sale, we need to clean out and move the rest of our items before the closing date, which is April 28th.

We are always interested in what you the members are thinking. PLEASE write or call any of the officers and let them know what direction you feel we should be looking for the future of Doric Lodge.

It would be nice to see many of your faces on April 4th; as a nice send off for our building and also the opportunity to meet our new Masons. As always, please let us know if there is anything we can do for you. Member’s needs should be and are our # 1 concern. See you in Lodge.

FROM THE TRUSTEES

 

Our Lodge has been sold with a closing date of April 28. We have two storage lockers from one of our members (Kent Olson). We will need a lot of help cleaning our building. We are currently aware of three lots available on Sprecher/Reiner Rds. This road is expected to be improved to a four- lane road in the future. It will give a good exposure to the public.

Sun Prairie Lodge is at a decision point as we have been in the past. Should they put their money in approving their Lodge or pool their assets into an Eastern Dane Masonic Center? Sun Prairie Leadership is willing to work with us. So Brothers, what should we be doing?
1) Try to build a new Lodge on our own?
2) Find a location to rent for a longer time?
3) Pool our resources with Sun Prairie?

Our money from the sale will be invested to achieve the best return while still being somewhat liquid.
