The annual Malta Lodge "Bike Drive" has been postponed this year. The lodge usually repairs bikes before Christmas to be given away though the Crisis Line.

This year the Bike Drive will be done at Easter so children will be able to ride them right away due to better weather conditions.

Check back concerning dates for bike repair and clean up.

Job’s Daughters and DeMolay will also wash cars as a fundraiser.

The Malta Lodge website continues to grow and change. It has currently registered over 1,600 hits, or people visiting the site.

A small "Anti-Masonry" section has been added to the Links page. It was voted upon in Lodge with the understanding that it’s always good to know what the critics are saying.

On 11/22/00 the website received the Albert Pike Award for outstanding Masonic websites.

Small "tweaks" have been made to make the website as unique as possible for Malta Lodge including a new banner and custom background.

The Lodge bylaws were lasted updated in 1961. In a separate mailing, the updated bylaws will be sent to all brothers. Enclosed with this letter, are the bylaws for the MOT Club. Comments are welcomed!
