Happy Fall, Sisters and Brothers, we are going to have a busy year coming up. Get your "running shoes" on.
Several of our Chapter members prepared a meal and delivered it to the Hope House residents on August 26th., which had been arranged by our Junior Past Matron, Kathy. We enjoyed sharing the meal and visiting with the residents and the children. We all agreed that we should do this again, So, I will work that into our schedule when possible. Our Chapter Installation will be October 8th, during our regular meeting night. Please come and support your 2025 Officers. If you would like to come to our meetings, but would rather not drive at night, please give me a call at 4l9-421-6088 and I will be willing to come for you. We really need to see you here. At our November meeting, I would like to have everyone share something that they are thankful for during the 'Good for the Order' portion of the meeting agenda. For the December 10th meeting, please wear your favorite Christmas sweater. On December l4th, I would like our members to go Christmas Caroling, starting at the Van Crest Assisted Living Center to serenade our member, Judy Leibrick. Then we will proceed to Fox Run Nursing Home, where Inez Robinson is a resident; finally to Primrose Assisted Living where Darl Waltermire is a resident. After caroling, perhaps we can meet at a restaurant for an evening meal or just socialize over hot chocolate or coffee. I warmly invite all Masons and their family to join us in the Spirit of the Holiday. Our Worthy Grand Matron, Marla Barber, has requested all Chapters save aluminum pull-tabs, as this is one of her projects this year. The tabs will be turned in to the District Charities Director, who will in-turn give them to the Ronald McDonald House. (A company will melt the tabs down and donate the cash equivalent to the Ronald McDonald House.) I know the Masons collect the tabs for the Shriners, but perhaps, this year, the Order of the Eastern Star members could also save the tabs and give them to the Ronald McDonald House. Brothers and Sisters, Autumn is here, with all its beautiful colors, reminding us that the holidays will soon be upon us. Time marches on!!! Do have a wonderful Thanksgiving and a very Merry Christmas---- ever mindful of 'THE REASON FOR THE SEASON'! Star Love, Charlotte Ballard, Worthy Matron Steve Tong, Worthy Patron
