Hello Brothers:

Hope this finds everyone well. We have several events coming up. Saturday March 6th is the Brighton Lodge Antique Show at Hartland High School. Our Lodge will be selling the food and refreshments this year. Stop by and show your support 9 am – 5 pm . We have a Master Mason Degree on the 10th and Breakfast with the Irish @ Cleary's Pub on the 13th. Also mark your calendars, April 17th is our 24th Annual Spaghetti Dinner. It will be here before you know it!

Lodge Rings
Several of the brothers have expressed interest in ordering a custom Howell #38 Lodge ring from Gordon Spurlock (http://www.gordonsmasonicrings.com/catalog4.htm). To place an order we need 10 interested brothers. The cost will be $89.00 per ring plus shipping. If you are interested or would like more information send an email to jessdavey@gmail.com or leave a message at (810) 299-2151.


Brother Doug Lewis
I've recently been contacted by Brother Doug Lewis who is a life member of Howell Lodge (raised in 1938!). After living in Howell for 62 years he has recently relocated to Kalamazoo and is interested in hearing from some of the Brothers by letter, phone (269) 353-1401 or email dl71717@sbcglobal.net.
