Message from our Worthy Grand Matron - Hurricane Milton
Official inspections for St. Cloud No 46, Lehigh Acres No. 291 and Lake Worth No. 111 have been cancelled and will be rescheduled.
Blanket dispensation have been issued for those Chapters who meet in the 51 counties for the State of Emergency issued by the Governor from 10/8/24 until 10/12/24.
I recommend that all Florida Eastern Star be encouraged to move their Chapter Charters to a safe location. If something happens to the Lodge due to this severe hurricane, your Chapter will still be able to hold a meeting somewhere.
Please if you are in a mandatory evacuation area or a mobile home in these areas, I urge you to evacuate if possible. It is our hope that everyone stays safe and healthy and we hold each of you in our thoughts and prayers.
Star love,
Debbie Rosenthal
Worthy Grand Matron
