GRAND MASTER'S URGENT APPEAL FOR HAITIAN RELIEF
Most Worshipful Edward G. Gilbert, Grand Master of Masons in the State of New York, has issued an urgent appeal to all Masons in the jurisdiction for all individual Brother Masons and Masonic Lodges to come to the aid of those who have been devastated by the disaster in Haiti. The Grand Master is requesting that tax deductible contributions be made in the form of checks to the Masonic Brotherhood Fund, Inc and marked "Special Haitian Relief Fund" and mailed to Masonic Brotherhood Fund, Inc., 71 West 23rd Street, New York, NY 10010. These monies will be made available directly to provide and augment aid and assistance to those members of our Masonic family that hail within the Grand Orient d’Haiti that have been devastated by the earthquake and its collateral damage in the Caribbean.

The brothers got together for the annual lodge picnic at the North Hempstead at the North Hempstead Beach Park. Although the weather was wet and dreary, it didn't hamper the brothers and kids from having a good time. We look forward to next summer
Brothers Jeremy Bernstein and Robert Panisse took a Friday afternoon off work and spent part of it touring The Grand Lodge of the State of New York on 23rd street in Manhattan. It was great touring the different ornate lodge rooms and hearing about Masonry's long and exciting history. Once again, Anton, a former member of PPW and one of the tour guides for GLoNY, didn't let the visiting brothers down.
