The Washington 17 Past Masters Club is renewing the “Wed.  Shut-in Visitation” while we are dark.  This evening the Past Masters and friends will visit Jim Hammonds  (Wed, July 28)  at 7pm.  Meet at Take 5 on Tylersville Rd to travel there at 6:50.  We will finish the evening at the officers club.  See you there!

Tom Dawson, PM, travels to New Zealand. The Master and Brethren of Phoenix Lodge # 43 welcomed me with open arms. I even sat in the “inner guard” chair and gave the Ohio Apron Lecture.

The PM travels to NZ

There will be an outdoor raising on August 14th @ 10am. The event will be held at the Elsen’s Farm in Colerain Township. If you would like further information please contact WB Tom Dawson.

Brethren,

We have received word, through his grandson, that Bro. James Bradley is in Hospice, on Eaton Ave.

Fraternally,

Matt Reed, PM

Brethren,

             It is with my upmost sympathy that I ask you all to pray for the Bradshaw family. Brother Lloyd Bradshaw KYCH and wife Shirley’s daughter passed away last week.

Bro. Shawn Campbell is in Mercy South with Heart trouble. We wish him and his family the best and please keep them in your prayers.

Please see information below on the Second District Golf Outing.

Tonight is our first in series of fundraisers at local dining establishments.  Ryan’s Tavern in downtown Hamilton will be donating 10% of your food bill to Washington Lodge just for mentioning the lodge.  If you can please try to stop by between 5pm and 9pm.

I say fist because, our Senior Steward Jamie Issacs has arranged similar events with both Applebee’s located in Hamilton.  Please visit www.washington17.org/fundraisers

Brethren, a fun time was had by all last night at “Hamiltucky Night.”  The relaxed evening brought out a few new faces as well as some bib overalls.  The evening concluded with a tour of the boiler room to view the new boiler.

Oh, and it included a repair of our treasurer’s bib’s!

The best part of the new boiler…
