Peanut Gallery news from The Eastern Star

Worthy Grand Matron Helen Black and Worthy Grand Patron Bryan Mitchell are pleased that all official visits to the various chapters have been accomplished and that they have such lovely memories of each visit. The various activities that each chapter performed to present a cheque to their special fund Sun Youth, Montreal will remain with them for years to come. Other activities kept them both very busy but now they must make plans for Grand Chapter coming up in October.

The members certainly enjoyed the Table Chapter meeting at Randall Hall. Who would think that the members would even think of throwing “cush” balls at each other but that’s what happened amid much laughter. The Town Hall Meeting at Randall Hall was very well attended and a very good discussion re our Order took place.

The members were very sad to hear the news that Lachute Chapter #56 had decided to close and consolidate with Westmount Chapter #9 where they will receive a great welcome. At their closing, a cheque was presented to Argenteuil Hospital to help make improvements in the Operation Block.

Members of the Eastern Star have been invited to attend the Masons’ BBQ at the Wales Home on August 8th. This is something that the members look forward to attending. Also coming up is a BBQ on July 21 in Fulford and a Soup Luncheon on September 16th in Stanbridge East.

It was so nice to hear that Brenda Shaw Radford and Terry Radford are feeling much better and are getting out to enjoy the summer weather.

Here’s a Chuck – I just took a leaflet from my mailbox informing me that I can have sex at 73. I’m so happy because I live at 71 so it’s not too far from home afterwards and it’s on the same side of the street so I don’t even have to cross the road.

Until next time. Enjoy this summer weather, it’s better than snow and ice.
