W:. Robert Coe, serving as Tiler for the Installation, makes his proclamation in the East.

Aiding in the ceremonies were fellow Past Masters of Harmonie, W:. Nathan Schoff, W:. Gerard Schultz, W:. Robert Coe, and distinguished guest, RW:. Dan Peters.

This was the first event that Harmonie attempted to chronicle a video record of the ceremony. Some kinks have yet to be worked out, but at the very least, the audio of W:. Di Natale's address

was captured, and can now be viewed (or heard) by the Brethren, near and far. The central theme of the Master's words was a challenge to the brothers of Harmonie to maintain the strong work that the Lodge has accomplished over the past few years. An active Lodge is a strong Lodge. The quality, not the quantity, of the membership should be a strong focal point. Due to the files size it can be found on our Facebook Group and Page, just search Harmonie Lodge. We will be re shooting it in better light so that the content will match the appearance. Everything has to start somewhere!

After another successful Installation, Brethren and guests came together again in unity and fellowship to enjoy cigars and libations, in a collective toast to what promises to be a great 2013-2014 Lodge year.
