Medina wins Chapter of the Year!

     Bowling Green State University was the home of this year's Ohio DeMolay Conclave at which the Ohio DeMolay Chapter of the Year was announced.  Everyone had just finished their luncheon when State Master Councilor, Eddie Jones, began reading the various awards.  Our advisors and members held their breath as the Chapter of the Year award was finally announced.  Upon hearing that Medina had won, the members, joined by the chapter sweetheart climbed the stage to receive the award.  The excitement was great as Medina Chapter claimed this award for the first time in its history.  Great Job Guys! 

Master Councilor's Corner

     I would like to thank all the members of our chapter for electing me to serve as M.C. for the next term.  Our Installation will be held on August 19, 2006 at the Western Reserve Masonic Community near I71 & Rt. 18.  The Installation will begin at 7:30pm and there will be refreshments and a dance to follow.

Fraternally,

Adam Marshall

Time to make the Donuts

     Yes, it's that time again,  Medina County Fair time!  The week is just about over and the DeMolay boys have been working very hard helping Medina Lodge making and selling donuts, Hot Dogs, Ice Cream, and Drinks. 

Oh!  Just so there's no confusion, a "hooker" at the Donut Hut is the person who "hooks" the Donuts from the conveyor and places them on the cooling racks

A Month of Awards

     July was an awesome month of awards for our chapter.  Beginning with the District Awards Night on July 14, 2006.  On that night "The Medina pdf Formats" received bowling trophies for being league Champions.  Sean Shuler received the most improved bowler trophy, and he and Dad Shuler won a trophy for Father-Son high scratch game.  Our Chapter was presented DeMolay International's award for "Outstanding Publication".  Also, Alex Marshall received the PMC/MSA award for his term.

     At Conclave we also received the "Membership Sword" for bringing in the most new members, and a certificate for exceeding our membership goal.  Adam Marshall won first place in Putt Putt Golf, and Alex Marshall teamed up with our sweetheart, Liz Obert, to take second place in Euchre.  It is an exciting time in the history of Medina DeMolay, So come and be a part of it!

Senior Councilor's Scoop

     Well if you missed it, Medina Chapter is Chapter of the Year. Conclave was loads of fun with boys from all over the state. Our brother organization, the Order of Pythagorans was there too. We had a lot of parties and pulled a few pranks. With the summer drawing to a close we still can have fun outings during the school year, and it  would be a good time to bring some of your friends along. Who knows they might be a great DeMolay.  The only limit on the fun and the brotherhood is up to you. So, let's go for it. There are  four "F's" of DeMolay: Females, Fraternity, Food and Fun. Come on out and Define the Moment!

Junior Councilor's Journal

     Our newly elected Junior Councilor is Brother Tim Williams.  We are looking forward to receiving newsletter articles from him soon!  Until then, let's all focus on bringing in new members.  Remember, all the chapters start all over at zero for the next Chapter of the Year!
