Wahlert told him the meeting will be for district fellowship and to encourage Lodge members throughout District 5 to enjoy their Masonry with family and friends. District 5 includes Lodges throughout Roberts, Grant, Codington, Clark, Deuel and Hamlin Counties. MW Wahlert said all Masons, family and friends from throughout the region are invited to attend. "We believe Masons today can use a reminder that we are the world's largest fraternity," he said, "and that means letting the community see why our values are as alive today as throughout the history of the Craft." --- Brothers who are members of Philalethes may note the Laddie has a nice collection of single malt libations of the Caledonian variety ranging from Islay to Highland and Speyside.
