Hello brethren
We had a great time at the Fireworks festival at Valentine Park this month. We were able to get 45 children ID done. Thank you to the brothers and their spouses who attended and helped out. Remember that we have a fundraiser happening Aug 21st at noon. Tickets are on sale for $30 until Aug 10th. It includes a 7-10lbs smoked pork butt and 1 lunch plate. I look forward to seeing everyone here.
Christopher Franklin S.W.




FROM THE SOUTH



Hello from the Junior Warden ,
Thank you to everyone who has been helping out especially with Tuesday Night dinners and clean up.
I guess I need to apologize. I have been a little busy at work and haven’t the time I am use to having to write something up. Saying that I would like to mention that the Sororsis Club of Orange City asked for any volunteers to help build and work their annual Haunted House. They been doing it for years and have a lot of fun. Any questions please get in contact with me.
And, they have agree to allow us the opportunity to have a table at this event for Dist. 13 Child ID.
