I enjoyed seeing many of you at the convention this last weekend. We had a wonderful banquet followed by a game night. There were tables with UNO, Blackjack, Poker, and dominoes. We also had a great time in the hospitality room where Knights and their families caught up and ate together. The debate on the new legislation was professional.

I felt energized by the convention and I hope you did as well. Please take this energy back to your subordinate lodges and use it to recruit new members and to make your communities stronger. We will talk about the activities you are planning now and the people you help at the next convention.
