Brothers,

My first year as Master of the Lodge now comes to close. I wish to thank all the Brothers of Coastside Lodge for the help and support.

One of my joys for this year has been our continued growth as a Lodge.

With a few new members and raised Masons we will continue to see our part of the continued legacy of Free and Accepted Masons continue to thrive.

Once again the new year brings new hope and challenges. I look forward to 2012 as another year of hope and growth for our Coastside Lodge.

Coastside has a number of members who were raised here and have moved out of the area. Some as far as the East Coast. Yet it’s my hope that the Brothers who have been away for a while will find an opportunity to visit us soon or at the very least write us a letter letting us know you’re doing well. Please let us know.

Fraternally
Ron Ragland, WM
