First of all I would like to say thank you to all of you who attended this years Chapter Banquet, you helped make it a huge success. I would also like to thank all of you attended the Ceremonial Team Seminar; I hope it was a very informative and fun experience. As most of you know the registration for the One Day of Service has been closed for some time now, but I encourage all of you who have extra spots to reach out to those who weren’t able to reserve a spot and help make this year another resounding success. Spring Conclave is also right around the corner, April 18^th-20^th at Beaumont Scout Reservation, and I hope everyone who is working on Brotherhood attends and participates in either a service project or as an Elangomat, also considering joining a Ceremonial Team because it can also be used as a Brotherhood requirement. After Spring Conclave the main event will be OA Summer Camp, which will be held at S-F Scout Ranch on July 27^th – August 1^st, it is an extremely fun program with lots of activities based around the OA and I encourage everyone to sign-up as soon as possible. One of the main chapter events that is coming up is the May Chapter Meeting which will be held on May 7^th, with the location to be determined. If you have any questions remember to check the Shawnee Lodge Website.

                                                                        Yours in Brotherhood,
