Message from the East – October 2025

Greetings Brethren,

With the change in temperature, and our first meeting under our belts, pumpkin spice season is definitely upon us.

I enjoyed seeing so many brethren and visitors out in September. Thank you to Bro. Bosche for the wonderful meal and to everyone who contributed or stayed to assist with clean up. Thank you as well to the brethren who made the trip from Pembroke to deliver the Traveling Gavel.

As you can see from the summons, we have a busy October with multiple District 2 events as well as our own two First Degrees including fraternal visits from our DDGM, a trip to Ashlar to present the Travelling Gavel and our first annual Oktoberfest event. Please promote this in your social circles and point your friends to the new Bytown Instagram account for details.

And remember:

“Happiness lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.”

– Bro. Franklin D. Roosevelt
