| Our last big chance to sell raffle tickets for our charities is this Saturday in Madison from 9:00 to 6:00 PM. We need more Brothers to help with set-up from 8:00 to 9:00 AM and take-down from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. This is your opportunity to help all three charities this year: Masonic Home for Children at Oxford, MESH Foundation, and "Toys for Tots." Tickets will be available until the drawing on December 10th. We will initiate FOUR candidates on Wednesday, October 23 at 7:00 PM. Due to our members' LOW ATTENDANCE, we have asked other lodges to help us as we need conductors for the candidates. We have not had this many new initiates in years and your presence would be helpful and/or supportive. Remember that the first meeting in November is our annual lodge day when we vote for the officers for 2025. Unfortunately, we had to suspend 3 members for NPD's at our last meeting so remember you will need a dues card to vote and your dues may be paid for 2025 at any time. Attend and see what is happening at JEFFERSON PENN LODGE, |

The Lodge hosted a walking tour for the Reidsville City's Historical Preservation Commission. It was a great opportunity to share the rich history of our lodge and Masonic traditions. It’s fantastic that WBRS Earl Moore and Paul Tutherow, along with other brothers, were there to answer questions and engage with the visitors. |
