Pewee Valley Lodge #829 was able to present Brother Howard Griffin with a 60 year service award to Masonry!!!  Bro. Howard is not only a Mason, but is a retired Master Sargent and served in World War II, the Korean Way and Viet Nam!  Its not only a pleasure to recognize him for his service to Masonry but also to this country!  God Bless you Bro. Howard and thank you for your service!

The Lodge also initiated two new Entered Apprentices on the same night!  We had a few Past Masters doing the degree work and what a great job they did!  Thanks to all the Brothers who helped out with the degree and our Stewards who supplied a great meal!

We also had several visitors in from out of town.  What a great night it was for brotherly love and affection.  Thanks to those Brothers who came out to support the Lodge.  We always welcome visitors!

Lots of things happening at the Lodge lately!  Last meeting we had a few visitors, discussed quite a bit of business and an Entered Apprentice degree coming up for our next meeting.  Please come out and show your support for this new brother-to-be and to assist the Lodge!

Part of an ongoing program by our 2016 Worshipful Master John Shaughnessy is to recognize brothers on a monthly basis who go above and beyond to assist the Lodge in varying degrees.  We were unable to present last month's award recipient with his award because he was unable to attend (he was most likely golfing :)  Pictured above are the last two months recipients, Brothers Jeff Meade PM and Jim Stephens PM.  Congratulations brothers for your hard work and unwavering support of the Lodge!
