Dear Brothers,
The Oleika Engineers have been very busy. Welaid track to West Liberty Kentucky, Fourteen
engineer members (Seven of whom are full
Highland Lodge members) went to Highland
Lodge 311 to rebuild the Lodge building that was
damaged by the tornado that occurred in March.
We successfully put it under the roof in 3 weeks. I
would like to thank all the brothers who donated
chairs, aprons, money, cranes, tool trucks, bucket
trucks, backhoes and various other donations.There is now enough money to buy carpet.
The residents of Eastern Kentucky now think we
are real engineers because we rebuilt the building
in just 3 weeks!
Brothers, please make sure that your home lodge
insurance policies are updated in case their is ever
a construction need for your lodge.
We are now back in Lexington at the Farmers
Market on Sundays between 10:00 a.m and 2:00p.m, unless we are doing a gig out of town. Come
join us at the farmers market tent for laughs and
tall tales and make sure you bring your boots cause
the bull gets mighty deep.
We also held and eight hour truck and trailer
session. Thirty-four people were in attendance. It
was a good turn out and Im proud of everyone.
Yours in the Faith,
Mike Holbrook
Senior Engineer
