The reason for this dinner is to get all of the Ambassadors together for a meeting concerning our upcoming Fall Reunion and to give each of you packets and other required information. Please be sure to give these packets to candidates in all your Blue Lodges so that we can make this a successful Reunion.

Please call the office no later than Friday, August 21, 2009 to make your reservation.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Fraternally,

Brad Hufeld, 32°

Valley Secretary

It is time to sign up where you would like to work during our upcoming Reunion. Rehersal’s will be starting this summer and we have many different positions in several areas to fill.

To get more brothers for our fall Reunion we are going to accept a payment plan of $75.00 a month for July, August, September & October. We hope this will relieve the financial stress of $ 300.00 usually paid one time. Remember to tell everyone in your lodge our Reunion is October 30th and 31st.
