Last night (04/04/2016) the Cobb County Masonic Convention was held at Latham Masonic Lodge #12 in Austell. WB Jan Giddens was installed as Worshipful Master; also from James E. Sledge Daylight Lodge, brethren installed were WBs Don Wilkes-Deputy Master, WB Randy Akers-Junior Deacon, and Rusty Cordle-Junior Steward . Also from our Lodge, WB Hugh Watson served as Marshall and WB David Kilgore served as Chaplain. Past masters of the convention from Sledge include WBs Bennie Anderson, Doug Middleton, Hugh Watson and Richard Cunningham. We were honored to have Grand Master of Masons in Georgia, Brother F. Andrew Lane, Jr., install, and speak to us on ways to "live the learning". A delicious meal was served and a super Masonic evening was enjoyed by all. Our next happening will be the 4th of July Parade in Marietta. It is a fun family event. Make plans to attend!

From the Worshipful Master

Our Cobb Co. Convention is putting together a Speaker's Bureau. Our lodge has the cream of the crop in Cobb County Masonry. I hope each of you will consider being a part of the Bureau. Just forward a topic or topics that you feel comfortable speaking to our brothers about. I look forward to hearing from you.
