From the East

By Lyman Penning, PM—Master

When you receive this Trestleboard, we will already have held our Public Schools Night (April 24), along with the initiation of Lacy Johnson into Bethel 1 Job's Daughters in Dublin (April 24) and the Bethel 1 Spaghetti Feed and Silent Auction (April 25) at our Masonic Center. Again, I feel that the continued support of our youth provides future strength for Freemasonry.

On the subject of our youth groups, please mark your calendars for the installations of our three youth groups. They are:

• Castro Valley DeMolay on Saturday, May 10, 2025 at 4:00 PM with a dinner at 6:00 PM

  
  

• Job's Daughters Bethel 1 on Saturday June 7, 2025 at 2:00 PM, and

  
  

• Unity Assembly #65 Rainbow for Girls on Saturday, June 28, 2025 at 2:00 PM.

Our Reno Bus Trip, scheduled for June 7-8, is likely to be cancelled unless we have at least 40 people going on the bus by May 1, 2025. Right now, only 17 people have signed up. Please hurry as time is running out.

Our DOSI on Tuesday, May 13, has been cancelled by the inspector so that brethren and their ladies and friends can enjoy the San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park in San Francisco. Feel free to enjoy a good baseball game.

That's it for now. See you in the lodge room.
