25 Feb 2013 Visit to Ad Lucem Lodge No. 812

Two members of Wilmington Lodge No. 804 went to visit Ad Lucem Lodge No. 812 on 25 Feb 2013.

SMG &FJA departed NW about 5 PM and arrived in Oakland by about 6:15 PM.  We finally found a parking place and made it into the Pittsburgh Athletic Association building, which is where Ad Lucem Lodge meets.

Ad Lucem Lodge No 812 is one of only two Traditional Observance Lodges in Pennsylvania.

We found this trip to be one of pleasure.

Fish Dinner held 22 Feb 2013

Wilmington Lodge No. 804 Held its Second Lenten Fish Dinner at the Wilmington Masonic Hall on Friday 22 Feb 2013.

We served 117 dinners this evening.  We ask for a donation of $9.00 for the meal.

We were given many nice compliments about the food.

We give the eater a choice of Baked or Fried Fish (Cod), coleslaw, brownies, a choice of either French fries or macaroni-n-cheese, ice cream and a variety of drinks.

Nobody should ever go away from a dinner at Wilmington Lodge without being stuffed, unless they choose to so do.

Our dinners are almost always very tasty.  We also have a fun time during the dinners.

If you like fish give our Lodge Dinners a try.  We will hold these dinners each Friday of Lent including Good Friday during 2013.

Fellow Masons are especially encouraged to come out an help support our Lodge.

Fat Tuesday Party

Wilmington Lodge No. 804 held a Fat Tuesday Party for members and friends this evening.  The food was prepared by WM KAG and his family.  Masons attending were FJA & GF DSL, JEC & wife & children, JPF & wife, KAG & wife & child,  GLH & wife,  MTH & wife,  and DLW.  Guests included DAA and SJ.

The food was very good and probably very fattening in accordance with the concept of Fat Tuesday.

If you were not there you missed a good party.  We had a fun evening involving good food and a fun time talking with others.

Today three members of Wilmington Lodge No. 804 constructed a "Fish Cooking Shack" on a trailer to be used by our lodge for cooking fish and fries for our Fish Dinners during Lent.  JEC, PM, FJA, PM and KAG, WM built this shed today in KAG's dirveway.

The materials and tools used for its construction were donated by the three members who built the shack.

It should work well to help us cook the fish and fries.

Functionality was the prime requirement instead of beauty.  Plumb, Level and Square are probably exceeded in its construction, but it should work well.  No comments or complaints about the construction will be accepted.  Do not even think about it.
