Brethren,
July was a busy month for us. Continuing our influx of masons, we raised 2 new Master Masons last month. So many young masons have been getting involved and dedicating their time to the lodge and these young men are no exception. They are already great additions to Rockford.
We held our first annual community yard sale last month and the turn out was awesome. Between vendors and visitors, we ran out of parking spaces. All the vendors were extremely thankful for the opportunity and many look forward to participating next year.
Another annual event was our 6th annual ice cream social. Unfortunately, due to in-climate weather, the turn out was minimal. We still have a lot of ice cream and will hopeful re-hold the event this month. Watch the "From The South" for more information.

The beautiful lights that were made by brothers Joe Mencer and Doug Cable found their way to Sweetwater Lodge on July 18th. A few brethren along with the fore-mentioned brothers, presented the lights to the lodge prior to assisting with a Master's degree. A special thanks goes to brother Andy Swicegood for having us and for his work in that lodge.
Rockford and Prudentia Lodges came together at Prudentia to provide a late luncheon to the area Masonic widows and orphans. We had wonderful food and fellowship and I sincerely hope to see these friends around the lodges more. Our doors and arms are always open.
At the end of the month we held a long over due family night and all I can say is WOW. The turn out was unimaginable. A special thanks to everyone that attended we look forward to doing this again very soon.
Thank you all for an incredible month. Thanks to you Rockford is running strong.
