We had our Annual Installation this evening and had a wonderful turnout. We had meal at 6:30pm which was a pot luck and thank you for the Masons that brought food and drink. At 7:30 started the installation and all went very smooth. WB Mike Ross was the Installation Officer and WB Bob Holly was the Installation Marshal, and both did a beautiful job. Thank you for WM and SW of Northstar Lodge for joining us at this event and thank you's also for the gift they gave to the new WM (it will be repaid). We would also like to thank the Litchfield Star members that came to see our installation. Congratulations to our new WM Chris Thorson.
