Brethren,
I respectfully invite each of you to come out and support Cedar Lodge during our Annual Inspection in the Fellowcraft Degree on Friday, March 6. This evening represents far more than a required observance. It is an opportunity to stand together in fellowship, demonstrate our commitment to excellence, and show pride in the work of our Lodge.
The Fellowcraft Degree reminds us that growth is intentional. It calls us to advance in knowledge, discipline, and service, not only as Masons, but as men striving to improve ourselves and the world around us. Our Annual Inspection is a reflection of that charge. It is a moment to showcase the care, preparation, and dedication poured into our ritual and into one another.
Gavel drop will be promptly at 7:00 p.m., and I encourage everyone to arrive early to ensure a timely opening and a strong showing of support. Your presence matters. Whether you have a speaking role or sit quietly on the sidelines, the strength of the Lodge is measured by those who choose to be present and engaged.
Following the inspection, refreshments will be served, offering us time to relax, visit, and enjoy the fellowship that binds us together as Brothers. These moments after the work is done are just as important as the labor itself, reinforcing the relationships that make Cedar Lodge what it is.
Let us come together on March 6 with purpose and pride. Your support strengthens our Lodge, honors our traditions, and encourages the continued growth of our Craft.
Fraternally,
WM Josh Nickles
