Lodge 84, Dallas hosts spaghetti luncheon Dear Readers, Lodge 84, Dallas held its spaghetti luncheon on Sunday, August 22, 2021, at Sokol Hall in Dallas. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the turnout was a bit smaller than expected but still a good time was had by all those who attended. Vice President Vicki Sims welcomed everyone in attendance and brought the monthly meeting to order at 12:22 p.m. After some brief announcements, a motion was made to table the minutes and remainder of the meeting until September. Motion carried, and everyone settled down for an afternoon of spaghetti dining and bingo playing. I do want to make note that a moment of silence was held for our departed member Brother Jack Wolfe and for the mother of Brother Ron Coker. May your loved one’s rest in peace. Next Meeting—September 19 Lodge 84 will be holding its next monthly meeting at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, September 19 at the home of Charles and Kathy Nemec, 10707 Webster Terrace, Dallas, Texas 75229.

Lodge 92, Fort Worth to host Czech Heritage Day on Sept. 18 “I had the honor of presenting a check to Rockport Volunteer Fire Department from the SPJST Foundation. This check is from the residual funds from the Hurricane Harvey fund drive. I met with Gillian Cox, a captain in the Rockport VFD. She was very appreciative of the check, letting me know that the department is completely funded by donations and volunteers. She then gave me a tour of the their beautiful facility that was repaired after Hurricane Harvey.” —Regina House SPJST District Seven Director
