Dear Companions,

On February 10, 2010, Romeo Chapter 17 had the honor of having two distinguished guests. We had the pleasure of receiving our Deputy District Instructor, Terry L Baker and the Grand Master of the 1st Veil, Richard G. Hitch. Chapter was opened in due form and business was conducted, including appointing an interim Treasurer, Past High Priest, Paul Heller.

We thank Paul for taking on this additional duty. The School of Instruction went very well and our DDI brought some new insight to the craft. Earlier in the month we meet at Youngers Irish Tavern for dinner prior to a practice. Many family members and prospective members enjoyed $1.00 Hamburger Night at the Tavern.

I certainly appreciate everyone’s effort in preparing for the School of Instruction and the upcoming Inspection. Companion Terry Baker announced in Chapter and later in private that he was very pleased with our progress.

Please come out and enjoy the companionship and fraternity of our Chapter.
