Well, I was hoping and telling everyone that the building renovation project would have been done by now.......IT'S NOT!!!! After 5 years of dinking around and firing one engineer, the fellas in the Lodge....."think" they have a plan..??? The roof will be done by the end of fall. The General Contractor will begin some renovating of the upstairs lodge room so all meetings can be held in a regular lodge Room once again. The DeMolay Rec Room has been almost completely ripped out. A "restoration" company is coming in to seal off the walls after they treat em for mold growth. I will be there to remind the Lodge that will put it back together.....better than it was before!. What does all this mean, well I have had to cancel all rec nights in the building. We have had one Pizza Night to discuss future of the building and our needs. We will also scale back meetings to 1x/mo with rec nights to 1x/month. Some activities to take place at the Black Bridge Fitness Center for BBall and VBall. The fellas are still busy with fund raising, setting up tables and chairs for community events and cleaning up the mess at the Lodge. We are well on are way to earning $$$$$$$ for the Sweet Re-Treat and Skiing in Fairmont again this year. The fellas promise not to break anymore bones this year!!!!!
I hope to get pics to Josh to get em up on the web site, however I need to see more enthusiasm for it too. If any DeMolay is out there....Montana, Etc. drop a line. We may come visit. I have mentioned to the Chapter that there is usually a Masquerade Ball in Billings every year...... we may just show up to teach ya a few moves....??? 
Fraternally, Dad Stinnett
