Additional cabins obtained for Caribbean cruise
    Mike Girolamo has obtained addition-al accommodations for the week-long Caribbean Cruise starting March 7.
Space is limited, so make your reser-vation early. Call Mike at 866-2115 for details. Cruises are fantastic experiences, but it should be even more fun to travel with your fellow lodge members. It should be a ball!
     A representative of Costa Lines will be at the October 14 meeting, providing additional information and to answer questions.
     A wine and cheese party will follow.
     Mike reports that the Atlantic City and Villaggio bus trips are sold out, so if you haven't signed up, you're too late.

President's message
     Thanks to those all who worked so hard at the Saint Gabriel Society's festival. I'm proud of our members for their assistance in this worthwhile endeavor. It helps to establish a good work-ing relationship between the church and the Lodge.
