Hello, my name is _____________________________________ and I’m calling from Melbourne Lodge No. 143.

How are you this evening?

We are calling each of our members to touch base and get your ideas about how your Lodge can better serve you and all our members. I am relatively new to the Lodge and don’t recall meeting you.

Have you been in Lodge lately? YES NO (circle one) If not, is there a specific reason for which I can provide assistance?

WRITE-IN COMMENTS:

The Stated Communications are for business, but are kept to a minimum by paraphrasing or summarizing minutes and correspondences. Prior to the meeting the Junior Warden and Stewards prepare top quality meals for your enjoyment. You are welcome to bring your wife, family, and friends to these pre-meeting dinners. The Worshipful Master’s goal is to keep the meeting short so that the Brothers can enjoy dessert and fellowship.

The Called Communications are for Degrees and Catechism Proficiency.

When a Stated Communication is canceled, it is replaced with a Social Meeting. The evening is dedicated to a dinner and when finished, all will retire to the Lodge Room, where there will be a speaker or some other agenda that will also be interesting to your family and friends, such as Bible and Apron presentations to new Master Masons. Does this sound like something you would be interested in attending? YES NO (circle one)

The officers of the Lodge are bringing FUN back into Masonry and are working hard to COMMUNICATE with our members.

To be successful, we need your input.

Do you have any suggestions related to the content and layout of the monthly Trestleboard? YES NO (circle one)
