| From The East "The secret of Masonry, like the secret of life, can be known only by those who seek it, serve it, live it. It cannot be uttered; it can only be felt and acted. It is, in fact, an open secret, and each man knows it according to his quest and capacity. Like all things worth knowing, no one can know it for another and no man can know it alone." - Dr. Joseph Fort Newton The August Stated Meeting will be on August 2nd. The remainder of the month of August will be dark, due to the ongoing cleanup, renovation of the Lodge's gathering/dining room. We have lots of items left to do, so if you can donate your labor or other resources please give Jimmy Lysiuk or myself a call. We are flexible and we would be glad for the help. We are shooting for a Grand Re-opening of Kona Lodge's gathering/dining room for the September Stated Meeting. There are many people to thank for this effort and I will wait until this project is complete to name names. Just understand: 'it takes a village' and I thank all of you for your support.

FROM THE WEST Aloha Brethren, I congratulate our newly obligated Brother Clayton who has been raised to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason. This was a combined effort to raise Brother Clayton, who is a member of Kilauea Lodge. We have a pretty good Third Degree Team, which is comprised of Kilauea and Kona Lodge members. Indeed it was a job well done. I thank all the brethren who participated in the new renovation of the dining room floor. The lodge would not be the same without those that keep the lodge well maintained and harmonious. I apologize for not attending the Annual Kona Lodge Picnic as I was off island. I hear it was a huge success. I extend to all the Masonic Brethren, traveling or not, to attend lodge and enjoy the Masonic Comradery and Aloha which we all enjoy when we sit down to a meal on the level.
Chris Domino Senior Warden From the South Aloha my brothers, summertime is in full swing and our lodge is as busy as ever. The floor project is completed thanks to Worshipful Bob Brogan, Brother Jim Lysiuk, Brother Ramon Villasenor and Brother Adrian Villasenor. Your tireless efforts are much appreciated and your dedication to the betterment of our space. Our Annual Kona Lodge Picnic was July 22nd; I hope everyone who attended had a wonderful time. We were honored to have Right Worshipful Wilson Camagan DGM attend our picnic. We were moved by his rousing speech of his long love for Kona Lodge (RW Wilson was initiated an EAP at the Old Kona Lodge in Captain Cook in 1992). He promises that the outer islands will not be left out in his upcoming year as Grand Master and will be here for our installation in December. The food was prepared by our very own members and Officers. There was enough food on table so if you went home hungry it was your own fault. Let's keep moving forward and staying progressive and supporting each other the best we can. Your brotherly love and friendship is truly appreciated and I value each and every one of you.
