Notice of Regular Communication of St. Alban's Lodge No. 6 will be held at 363 Hope Street, Bristol, RI 02809.
Wednesday, June 11th, 7:00 PM
Greetings St. Alban’s Brothers,
Welcome to June, and that festive and celebratory time of the year it brings to the Town of Bristol. As our town famously celebrates America’s Independence, we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the beginning of the American Revolution. We also celebrate St. Alban’s #6 milestone 225th anniversary.
We begin the month with an Association Board of Directors meeting on Thursday, June 5th. Next, we have our stated communication on Wednesday, June 11th, hosting our sponsored Little League team for a pizza party. On Sunday, June 22nd, we have a religious service with St. Michael’s Church at 9:00 am to acknowledge St. Alban’s Day (June 22nd) and St. John’s Day (June 24th ).
As this will be the last monthly communication before our annual 4th of July celebration, I’d like to invite all members and families to the lodge to watch the 4th of July parade. Whether we will be marching again this year is yet to be determined. Stay tuned. At this point, feel free to bring your food and drink to the lodge, but please try to lend a hand and clean up after yourselves when you leave.
Enjoy the summer, my brothers. You’ve all earned some well-deserved time to rest and refresh yourselves.
St. Alban’s #6, “We are small, but we are mighty!”
Fraternally,
R. Andrew Benn, WM
Brothers,
Thank you to those who have reached out in regards to assisting me with a potential Glow Ball tournament once again this fall. Also for assisting me in planning our annual holiday dinner. Many hands make light work!
I ask that you please take a moment and log into Grand View and verify your information, including any of your family members you may have listed. I plan on doing more of the regular email communication through the existing software. If you have any questions or need assistance with getting logged into Grand View, please let me know. I am happy to assist.
Be on the look out for some more Fourth of July St. Alban’s Merchandise. I have been playing around with a few ideas and will be sharing online once I am content with designs.
Yours in Brotherhood,
Danny Cordeiro
Secretary
