March 12, 2009 - COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

Here's a photo I want you to see:


In the upper left-hand corner is Dunedin Lodge's Senior Warden, W:.Ken Giesow, reading a book to a first grade class at Dunedin Elementary. The occasion was the school's "Read Across America" program and W:.Ken was invited to read Dr. Seuss books to Ms. Morrison's first grade class, the same class Dunedin Lodge sponsors. Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel ) was selected as Bro. Ken read the books on the author's birthday (March 2nd) which he read wearing an iconic "Cat in the Hat" hat.

Said Bro. Ken, "I don't know who enjoyed it more, the kids or myself; probably me!"

W:.Giesow is also the Chairman of the Lodge's "Bikes for Books" program at the school where the Lodge is providing bicycles to the top readers in grades K-5, both boys and girls. The bicycles will be presented at the end of the school year.

We're very lucky to have Brothers like W:.Ken who generously give of themselves back to the community. It's not only good for our schools and neighborhoods, but for the fraternity overall. If every Brother would volunteer their time in some small capacity like this, think of the difference we could make. "IMAGINE: If every Mason did just one thing!"

Until next time.

All the Best,
