Brethren,
On Sunday August 19th, RWB Jess Raines will be presenting his Rollout program for the upcoming year.  The event will take place at the Lima Masonic Center starting at 2pm.  Ladies are welcome to attend the event.
I had the pleasure of attending the initial presentation several weeks ago.  I was impressed with the very well organized, concise, and informative program.  I would highly recommend that you attend if you can to hear about some of the exciting programs that will be discussed.
Fraternally,
Keith
