There’s a buzz in the air here at Byington Chapter #177 and for once it’s not the bad ceiling fan! It’s December 8th and the Grand Chapter Officers have arrive, the feast is in final preparations, Christmas music is floating in the air, and the socializing has begun in earnest.
Dinner was a feast of pulled pork barbecue, Swedish meatballs, and all the delights of a fine meal, including candlelight (in the room where light means gale force winds).

Whilst we all waited for the key to arrive, many huddled together in the cold so that we could better appreciate the warmth once inside.

Our own Maryann McAfee received 60-year membership recognition from the Acting Grand Worthy Patron Steve Boyer while Worthy Grand Matron Wanda Ryan and our Acting Conductress for the evening Cindy Wise look on.
