TRANSCRIPT
Dear Brethren, The success of a Masonic lodge can be measured in several
different ways: participation of the members, ritual proficiency,
community involvement, philanthropy, the list goes on. The Grand
Lodge of Virginia acknowledges a successful lodge with the
James Noah Hillman award. Cherrydale has a rich history of at-
taining this recognition, and with effort we can continue this tradi-
tion.
It is important that every member does what he can within the length of his cable tow to
make this possible. All too often, it is the same core brothers that are putting in the effort
for the enhancement of Cherrydale Lodge. While these brothers’ commitment to the craft
is commendable, an over-reliance on them will lead to complacency from the rest of the
members and resentment from these brothers. The beautiful thing is, there are many op-
portunities for you to support your lodge.
Donating blood - Anytime and anywhere you make a blood donation, simply inform Wor.
Ed Jones, our lodge blood coordinator. You will be saving lives and supporting your
lodge.
Financial donations - A few dollars here and a few more there can make a great impact on
the lives of others. A contribution to the Masonic Home or the Cherrydale Lodge Scholar-
ship Fund affords you the opportunity to help your brothers and support your lodge while
living up to your obligations.
Learn a lecture - While this may seem a daunting task, the ability is within all of us. A
small commitment of time and effort goes a long way. We have several excellent teachers
and if you remember your catechisms, you are halfway there.
Attend a fraternal visit - Perhaps life’s circumstances have made it challenging for you to
regularly attend our stated communications. Attending another lodge for a fraternal visit
on a different night may work for you. A list of planned fraternal visits will be included in
each month’s trestle board.
