​Greetings Sir Knights, 

By the time you receive this newsletter, the officers of your Commandery will be installed for 2018-19 Commandery year. I’m honored to be elected and installed the Eminent Commander and will do my best to maintain the traditions 
of our Commandery. Keeping with tradition, I would like to continue to have a tureen dinner and business meeting on the 1st meeting of the month, the 2nd Wednesday with degree work or an educational program on the 2nd meeting of

Some upcoming events are: the 4th of July parade which the drill team is planning on attending and invite any knights to come participate, July 15th is the CTA picnic here in Findlay at 4pm and the CTA is supplying the meal: 
please call me with reservations, July 16th is another picnic with the beauceant at 5pm which is prior to drill practice, August 18-22 is the 67th Triennial of the Grand Encampment of the United States and information is on the
