With these candidates, our Assembly will have 52 men set to take their Degree on
March 10. I thank all of the members who proposed these candidates for the Exemplification. Please see that
these new members are invited to our March and April Meetings so they can become active in our programs and
missions. Special thanks to our Class Chairman Eric Bruns on his work in getting Candidates and putting a good
class together for the Fourth Degree.
Honor Guard Commander Rick Schmidt requests the Honor Guard report at
11:00 AM at the Marriott to assist at the Exemplification.
Stan Mengwasser said he could use more financial support for the Hospitality Room at the Exemplification. Stan
Jackson and Marvin Sack will be handling the room, but if they need help during the rush hour, please volunteer.
Looking forward to a wonderful event and tremendous reception for our Honoree Most Rev. Bishop Robert J.
Hermann, V.G. of St. Louis.
