Dear Sisters and Brothers:

Due to the ongoing concerns with the Corona Virus, today’s actions by the Governor, and the recommendations from the Health Department, I am ordering that all Eastern Star events and meetings be suspended until further notice.  Click Here For The Check In Letter from the W.G.M & W.G.P

Fraternally,

Denise L. Shippee, W.G.M.
Ronald D. Ayers, W.G.P.

Important Scholarship Notice:

Due to the present constraints imposed by the Covid-19 virus the deadline to file an application for a scholarship has been extended to June 1, 2020. The committee will accept the last available transcript as part of the application package. The fundraiser and awards dinner are postponed to a time and date to be announced. If need be, all checks will be mailed.
