Dear Brethren,

As your newly elected and installed Master, I wish to further explain one of my goals and to ask for your assistance in making this one of the best years that River Forest – Austin lodge has ever had. The first and most important goal for this year is to "HAVE FUN". If the activities are not fun or interesting, members will not want to participate. To that end, I am including a list of activities that are being planned. I am offering this list to you for your comment and offering you, the members of the lodge, an opportunity to suggest additional activities. I am requesting that you complete the survey on the attached sheet and return it to me not later than July 31, 2001. I appreciate your assistance and your comments. Here is your chance to help shape this year.

As an additional method of communicating with you, please check River Forest – Austin’s web page. We will endeavor to keep it up to date with the most current information including our calendar and pictures from the installation.

The address is: http://www.mastermason.com/lodge850

Thank you in advance for your participation in this brief survey.

If at any time during the year, you have questions or other suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact any of the officers listed below.
