With the SPJST Convention being held this year in August, I would like for as many delegates as possible to be at the meeting. There are a lot of things that need to be talked about. We need to be ready to find ways to keep SPJST moving forward.

District Two Annual Meeting Sunday, June 13 at Lodge 48, Beyersville

The annual business meeting of District Two will be held on Sunday, June 13, 2021, at the new SPJST Lodge 48, Beyersville Hall. The address is 10450 FM 619 in Taylor, Texas. Directions are listed under Lodge 48’s information in the back of the Vestnik.

Registration begins at 1 p.m. with the meeting following at 2 p.m. Be sure to register prior to 2 p.m. to be included in your lodge’s member count. Three auditors from three separate lodges will be appointed by the president to audit the district treasurer’s records, as well as the district youth club records prior to the business meeting. We will combine business with fun as there will be a silent auction, 50/50 prize drawing, guessing games, and a painted rock contest. Each lodge is asked to bring an item for the Silent auction.

Business will include election of new officers. Current officers are wishing to “retire” and are hoping others will become more involved by serving as an officer. Be ready to nominate someone who is willing to serve and who is dedicated to maintaining the fraternal activities of SPJST.

A meal with pork loin roast will be served by Lodge 48 following the close of the meeting. Cost is $3 per plate. What a bargain!

We are hoping to see all lodges represented at the District Two meeting. Come and socialize with friends whom we have not seen in a year due to the Covid distancing. Members may wear masks if they feel uncomfortable in the crowd. Fraternally, Rita Spinn District Two President —SPJST—
