A Message From The Grand
Master

Memorandum from David A. Chase, Grand Master
To: Worshipful Masters, Wardens & Brethren,
Grand Jurisdiction of New Jersey
Re: Appeal for Volunteers, USS New Jersey, BB
62
The Grand Lodge of New Jersey and the
Home Port Alliance of the Battleship New Jersey have entered into a Sponsorship
Agreement whereby the Grand Lodge of New Jersey has been given and
accepted permission to refurbish the Executive Officer Quarters on the
ship. It is the intent of the Home Port Alliance to have the quarters
completely refurbished by 9 February 2002. In order to meet the deadline
and accomplish this goal a large number of volunteers are required. Our
Battleship has a long and proud history. If you would like to become part
of her new life and the beginning of her new history as a floating museum in
honor of military personnel past and present, you might want to consider
becoming a volunteer in this great and important undertaking. We
respectfully request that you give this matter serious consideration. To
become a volunteer please forward your name, address, phone number and the days
and hours you will be available to help with the refurbishing of the Executive
Officer's Quarters to the Grand Lodge Office. This will enable us to
establish a schedule and eliminate having and excess or shortage of volunteers
at all times. I am requesting that you publish this appeal in the lodge
Trestle Board and post it on your lodge website if you have one. Thank you
for your consideration and we look forward to hearing from many of you very
soon.
God Bless you, God Bless America and God Bless Freemasonry.
David A. Chase, Grand Master
