District Lodge of Instruction
On Thursday evening, March 26, 2009 at Paulsboro Swedesboro
Lodge # 157 instead of our normal District Lodge of Instruction,
there will be a Table Lodge. I am hoping for a good turnout
from the brethren of our district. Attendance will be taken
as if it were a
regular DLI but the evening will be strictly for the enjoyment
of the brethren and to encourage the lodges to have them once
again. I
know most of your trestle boards have gone out for March so
please spread the word. I will need a head count by March
20th so that I
can have an idea how much food we will need as well as how
many tables I will need to set up. You will hear more about
this event at
our DLI on Thursday, February 26, 2009 at Williamstown Lodge.
