Brothers –

Our monthly chapter meeting will be held this Monday, October 18th, at Our Lady of Hope Parish. We will be meeting in the outdoor area behind the parish rectory located at 61-27 71st Street, Middle Village. This month’s theme is Halloween and Oktoberfest, so all are invited to come in either a Halloween costume/themed outfit or an Oktoberfest-themed outfit. We will be participating in some fun activities during the meeting. As always, please bring your sash. In addition, we will be holding our yearly Chapter Elections during this meeting. Anyone who is considering running for a Chapter Officer Position (Vice Chief, Secretary, or Treasurer) is asked to prepare a short address . It should be noted that a Chapter Officer position is a big commitment. Any member who knows any brothers that have become inactive due to the COVID-19 related alterations to our ability to meet, feel free to invite them down to what should be the grand restart of Mespaetch Chapter. Dues will be collected.I hope to see many of you there on Monday!

YIB,

Matthew Mohr
