As the Worshipful Master of Pine Castle Lodge No. 368, “That friendly little lodge on the south side of Orlando,” I would like to extend to you a fraternal greeting and invite you to attend our Lodge. It is our sincere wish that you will pay us a visit while in the area.

To all the old timers that have lived in the area for a while and may have paid us a visit in the past please come again, you will find the welcome just as warm as it has always been. To those Brothers that are members of Pine Castle Lodge, welcome to your home lodge website.

My Brothers, your Lodge is moving in a positive direction and the only thing we need to assist us in continuing to prosper and grow is your presence at our meetings and your continued support. As you may have noticed, changes are being made to the website. I have appointed Worshipful Michael Hemphill, Brothers Jeremy Lanman, Trey Rapp and John Miles to head up our Technology Committee. Any positive comments that you may have concerning this website are earnestly solicited.

Brothers, one of my goals for this year is to improve membership in our lodge, not only by getting quality Brothers to join Masonry but to increase attendance at our meetings. With the economy in a shambles as it is where else could you find a place that would enable you to relax and enjoy the fellowship with like minded people? Attendance to lodge meetings is free, participating in our family breakfasts is much less expensive then the local restaurants and a great way to start off a wonderful weekend with the most congenial people in the world. You will never be able to find a better place to decompress, renew old acquaintances, and reenergize your reasons for becoming a Mason.

A Master of a lodge can only accomplish so much, and his success is directly related to the support he receives from the Brothers of the lodge where he presides. I am here to help you move our lodge to a position in the community that will make us proud of the decisions that we made when we knelt at the Alter to begin our Masonic Career.

My phone No. and e-mail address are on the front of our printed trestle board, if you need to contact me please do so. You may also submit questions or comments HERE. I will try to make myself as available as I possibly can. I appreciate the trust you placed in me by electing me the Master of your Lodge and will fulfill my obligation to the best of my ability.

Fraternally,
David Garavano, Worshipful Master
Pine Castle, Lodge No. 368
