Thanks for all you do for the Mason's.
Jerry, and the Board, if you would be so kind as to add this info to your Masonic email list, it would be helpful.
The Scottish Rite Men's Club(SRMC) will have their monthly meeting this Wednesday March 25 in the Scottish Rite Banquet room.
Sheriff McCoy has committed to speak to us. This should be a very interesting meeting, thanks to Program Chair Fred Gruss.
We look forward to seeing all SRMC Members and possible members.
Please call Bev at 309-676-4472 to help us with meal quantities.
Thanks,
For the Men's Club
Jim McGill, President

Subject: Corn Beef & Cabbage Dinner Sunday
The Men's Club of the Scottish Rite is offering this special dinner treat Sunday for $10 from noon to 3 p.m.
It will be held at the Scottish Rite Cathredral, 402 N. Perry Street(downstairs).
We are also trying to provide dessets for an extra reasonable charge.
Tickets will be available at the door, public welcomed.
Also, if you have an email list that you can send a few notices about the Dinner, please do so.
Thanks,
Jim McGill, Pres.
Any profits from this, our only public event, are used for the Cathredral needs at the request of the Commander in Chief.
The Men's Club celebrated it's 20 year Anniversary in Oct. 2008 and has a long list of items bought for the said Cathredral.
And, this our third year of this dinner follows the many kudos we heard last year about the dinner.
