Our Worshipful Brother Schuman was visiting from Montana, so we decided to celebrate with an impromptu Chicken Lodge! Chicken Lodge is a Friendship tradition going back a decade now where we usually hold an Officer’s Meeting over a dinner of Chicken and Waffles. Seeing as how we were celebrating our Brother from Montana being in town, there was very little business discussed, but much chicken was eaten!
We had a great Stated Meeting last night as usual. What was delightfully unusual was the number of guests and returning members that we had! One Brother visited from especially far away, with Bro Leo joining us all the way from Montana. He brought with him a pin with a sapphire (the state gem of Montana) to present to our WM.
We also memorialized a Past Master of the lodge, Mike Watson, who unfortunately passed away recently. We were joined by his son, and several Friendship members who came to share fond memories of our passed Brother as well as celebrate his life.
