Hello Sister and Brothers!

I hope you are happy and well as we are enjoying our springtime of year!

We are looking forward to several events coming up and celebrating with some of our members. Our May stated meeting will be our Past Matrons & Patrons night. We are looking forward to honoring those that have served the chapter in this capacity. We are also looking forward to enjoying a delicious meal from Ferndale Chapter. As usual, dinner is at 6:30 and state meeting at 7:30.

On May 17th, our own Worthy Patron, Jeff White, will be installed at Illustrious Grand Master for Grand Council of Cryptic Masons in California. Several of us will be attending Grand Session in Burbank to support Jeff and his Lady Lisa. So proud of them and that they are part of our Chapter! We are looking forward to a busy term with them and wish them all the best.

On May 26th at 1PM will be a Reception for our Sister Sally Hansen, celebrating her office of Grand First Messenger for California Job’s Daughters Grand Council. It has been fun to watch her travels and hear her stories from visitations across the state. Please join us at Humboldt Lodge on that Sunday!

The Chapter is excited to get started on providing some community donations. If you have any suggestions for a donation to a worthy non-profit organization or youth groups, please let us know. We like to know what is important to our membership.

Thank you to our Job’s Daughter Bethel for making Goodie Plates purchased by the chapter for our local officers, 50 year members and 80 year-old members. We hope you enjoyed them!

We are looking forward to getting our Strategic Planning group going to review and renew our Strategic Plan and Goals. Please let me know if you would like to be a part of this, even you can’t attend our meetings, we would still like to hear from you. We are also looking forward to hosting a Game night and some other fun activities, so keep your eyes open to more information.

I wish you all a beautiful May, and Happy Mother’s Day to all our lovely Mothers.

With Star Love and Hugs, Heidi Quintrell, WM
