TRESTLEBOARD
The June 2010 issue of the
McHenry Lodge No. 158 Trestleboard newsletter is now available.
Starting with this issue the Trestleboard is being distributed electronically to
reduce Lodge expenses and conserve our natural resources. If you are
already receiving Cable Tow email alerts you are automatically subscribed to the
electronic version. If you are not getting Cable Tows (AND
WHY NOT?) you can
still receive the eTrestleboard by completing the subscription form on our
Subscription Management page.
Better still--sign up for the Cable Tow at the same time!
The eTrestleboard was emailed
June 1st. -- The printed Trestleboard was mailed June 2nd.
If you feel you must have a printed
& mailed copy you can change your subscription options on our
Subscription Management page.
This will cost the Lodge money and impacts the
environment so... think twice!

As you may have noticed, our website has been undergoing quite a few
changes. We have several new sections.
Office(r) Talk contains
messages and comments from our Lodge Officers. Check it out
frequently.
Photo Album while requiring no
explanation does deserve a look to see what we have been doing.
Rough Ashlars is a
collection of thoughts and articles on, by or about Masons and
Freemasonry.
Just like a having successful Lodge, this website must be a group
effort. We need your articles, pictures and ideas to keep the
site fresh.
If you have anything to submit please email it to
