I am humbled and honored by the trust Grand Lodge has placed in me regarding the editorship of Trowel magazine.  It will be difficult, especially for this first issue, but with your help, I believe we can keep the Trowel vibrant and interesting to the Brethren.

But this issue will be particularly difficult and I need your help in two ways:

First: I need help finding a new Lodge and District news editor.  The person must be a good magazine/newspaper writer, a good photographer, and excited about attending a large range of Masonic events.

Second: I need help with Lodge and District news articles for this issue.  You know that we need anniversary–60, 65,70 and 75 years– and Joseph Warren photos.  But also, I need an increased number of submissions of other stories from Lodges, Rainbow Girls, Eastern Star, Demolay, etc.  Normally, I would have the time to follow up with stories, but that will be limited for this issue.

I would greatly appreciate your communicating this to the Lodges and bodies in your district and if you know of a person fitting the description of Lodge and District News Editor, please forward him my email address.

Thank you for the help, as always,

Bro. Lee
