My Brethren:
On Wednesday, November 4, we will make our traditional Official Visit to Fredericksburg Lodge No. 4, Fredericksburg, Virginia. We will be presenting Most Worshipful Albert Hugh Tignor, Jr., Grand Master of Masons in Virginia, with a portrait of him sitting in the Washington chair taken in The Alexandria-Washington Lodge Replica Lodge Room at this year's George Washington Birthday Celebration. If you would like to attend the dinner at 6:30 p.m., please call me so I can notify Fredericksburg Lodge how many of our Brethren will be in attendance.
|
95 South to Route 17 South (Falmouth Exit), turn right onto Route 1 South, go to first traffic light (crossing over Falmouth Bridge) and turn left onto Princess Anne Street. Proceed to 803 Princess Anne Street. |
The 220th Grand Annual Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, A. F. & A. M., of Virginia will be held November 7-10, at the Hyatt Hotel in Richmond, Virginia. I encourage you to attend and participate.

95 South to Exit 79 (64 West to Charlottesville), 64 West to Exit 183B (East Broad Street), proceed on East Broad Street to the first traffic light, left into the Hyatt driveway. |
Because of Thanksgiving, there is only one Stated Communication in November. At our Stated Communication on November 12, we will award two Community Builder Awards. This years recipients are U. S. Congressman Thomas M. Davis (VA-11th Dist.), and Virginia Delegate Marian Van Landingham (45th Dist.). Come show your appreciation for the work these two individuals do for Alexandria and Northern Virginia.
Sincerely and fraternally,
Philip J. Hays
Worshipful Master
