It has been a long summer, but now it is time to get back to work. I am looking forward to seeing all my Brothers again. This summer we did the Fireworks booth which turned out very successful. I would like to thank all the Brothers who helped.
Greetings Brethren, As Summer is coming to an end we are getting geared up for the 2nd part of the year! With everything we are trying to accomplish, all of the Brothers help and support is needed to continue and end the year on a Great note!
On August 19th we did a 3rd Degree for Brother John Mathis. Brother John is moving and I wanted to make sure his degree was completed with us. This is very important to him to receive his 3rd Degree with us and we wish him the best in his future travels. He will be missed. I would like to thank all the Brothers who came out to help with the degree. Our stated meeting is on Sept. 2 and we have a lot of business to attend to so I hope all will come. On Sept. 9th, there will be the third degree for Brother Tim Curtain and his brother Greg will be conferring the degree. We have a Super Saturday on Sept. 13th at 11am and I hope all will attend. On Sept. 16th we will be having a First degree and Brother Michael Griffin will be conferring it. This will be his first time, so please come and support him. I would like to wish all the brothers who are celebrate their birthday in September, a very happy birthday and many more to come. I would appreciate any feedback you may have that would improve our Lodge and make it the best in Nevada. Upon the square Harold Scalzo Jr. Worshipful Master

"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy course; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat. ''--BRO.THEODORE ROOSEVELT Fraternally yours, Miguel SW
A friend is a Second Self Fraternity is built upon social relationships and brotherhood, where the faces of our fellows are turned to face one another. There does not exist the man who has ever gained the full measure of Freemasonry just by receiving the degrees. The full fraternal experience relies on the interactions of brotherhood. Hopefully these interactions will offer a cornucopia of ways to better one’s self and learn about others as well. There is an old Mayan expression: In La’kech. It means “I am another you”. Is this not one of the goals of the fraternity? To find yourself in others? The realization of this Mayan expression is an experience you might have during your tenure as a Brother but that does not make it common. In our modern world cities are larger than those of antiquity but it does not bring mankind closer together. Now more than ever Freemasonry must rely on the patronage of its brotherhood as promoters of our Art. Remember, numbers have never made for quality! Our greatness can only be measured by the composition of our members and so to our Masonic patronage and education we must look. Attend our communications more frequently, encourage our newly made brothers, help to carry the business and fraternity of Masonry and it, like the Earth, will return with interest every investment you make. The world is growing faster than ever before. We must grow with it or risk being out grown. A world where the brotherhood and fraternity of Masonry is no longer relevant is an ugly contemplation.
