I have had to pleasure of meeting so many great Brothers on these visits, and sharing experiences with you all. I am proud to be able to call myself a Mason of the Schoharie-Otsego District.

Nov 16, RW Rick will be hosting the weekly Road to the East course in Schenevus Lodge. He will be taking a break next week for the holiday, but will resume teaching the course in December. If you have not signed up for this yet, or your schedule does not accommodate meeting on Wednesday evenings, please talk to Rick ASAP. Rick has offered to meet brothers any time, any place that will work for them, and share Masonic Light.

Looking ahead- please refer to the district website for Stated Communications, Degree work and other info. If your Lodge is hosting a holiday party, please contact us right away so we can get the word out to the district. Remember, 12/9 is our quarterly Masters and Wardens Assoc. meeting, to be held in Schenevus Valley Lodge. I will email everyone with a Trestle Board next week.

If I do not see you, or talk to you individually sooner, Brothers, I am Thankful for each and every one of you, to be part of my life, and that all of you offer your friendship and brotherly love. Despite my joking demeanor, please know that you ALL mean so much to me and my family and I am a better man today because of Masonry and my Brothers.

Brother Jeffrey Shellenberger
