Fraternal Director
 Do you like challenges? This is a challenge for all our members from age 0
to 21. Each month for the next four months—May to August—you will be given
a challenge. The challenge has four parts that complete the puzzle. At the
end of each month, you will complete the form provided that describes the challenge
and submit it to the address provided. If you complete the four piece puzzle,
you will be mailed a certificate and a special gift. The names of those who
participated will be published in our magazine, in a fall issue, with your
authorized permission. Remember, you must complete all four parts to the puzzle
to be eligible for the gift.
Some of the challenges will have the youth working with the more experienced
members. Each challenge level will be different depending on your age. Your
first challenge is in the link below. You may want to make this a project for
your branch meetings, a family affair, or work on your own. Hopefully, it will
be fun and entertaining, especially during the summer months.
I will look forward to hearing from you.
Good luck and enjoy!
Fraternally,
Sue Ann M. Seich
