At a special meeting on Tuesday, October 27, 2009, RWB Behm was installed as a District Deputy Grand Master of the 22nd Masonic district. Here are some pictures taken at the event.

RWB Behm was presented by his father and installed by RWB Goebel, Deputy Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Ohio. Mid-Century Lodge is proud to list RWB Behm as a member and Past Master on its rolls. The Lodge presented him with a gift of an apron/jewel case and several gas cards. Congratulations, RWB Behm!

It is our honor to report that WB Stephen Behm (PM 2001-2002) is now Right Worshipful Brother Stephen Behm. At the 200th Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Ohio, held in Toledo on October 17, RWB Behm was appointed to represent Most Worshipful Brother Terry Posey in the 22nd Masonic district of Ohio.

Please join us on Tuesday, October 27th at 7pm at Avon Lake Masonic Center, to see RWB Behm installed as a District Deputy Grand Master. The installation is open to Masons and their guests.

After much hard work and fundraising, the Mid-Century Lodge kitchen was officially re-opened for business in September. The fundraising project was undertaken by WB Carl Behm in early 2008. Unfortunately, WB Behm passed to the Grand Lodge Above before he could see the project to completion, but his lady, Jeannette Conant, took up the reins.

Jeannette organized and helped prepare several pot luck dinners and chili cook-offs over the next year and, together with the matching gift program of the Russells (Anson Sr. and Jr., both PMs), managed to raise enough money to have the kitchen stove remodeled and an updated fire suppression system installed.

Finally, in September 2009, Jeannette performed the ribbon cutting to officially re-open the kitchen with an inaugural spaghetti dinner. Stay tuned for an impressive menu of monthly dinners for the coming year!
