Stated Meeting on 2nd of March 2010
Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 12:53AM The lodge met in Due and Anchient Form at 1830 for the purpose of the stated meeting. The most important item on the agenda was voting for degrees.
Mr. Chris Ayers was voted upon and the ballot was found Bright in the East.
other notes of interest; Bro. Tom Usher is investigating the local orphanages and Special Needs centers to find a suitable location for the Yokosuka Lodge #20 to assist. Due to the current popularity with the many private orgs on base for duing orphanage trips, it was decided that we should look carefully to find a location that was not over saturated. He will report back at the next stated meeting.
Bro. Ken Morgan presented a motion that to help curb the rash of cellphones that were ringing while in lodge that a voluntary $10 Donation would be given to the little house each time a cell phone rang audibly while in lodge (vibe and manner mode were deemed aceptable by all). it was seconded, put on the floor for discussion, and approved by majority vote. All the brethren immediatley checked their phones to ensure that they were on vibe!
After the rest of the business items were dealt with, the lodge was closed in due and ancient form by the WM.
