The College met on Saturday, October 7, when Stenrick Adams, Deputy Governor, presented the College with a flag and a gavel.

The College approved the setting up of a Committee to design a bespoke tie and bowtie for the College. Since we are a daylight College, it was decided that members would wear a dark suit, and Officers a black jacket and striped pants similar to English daylight Lodges.

A photograph was taken to commemorate the 70% attendance at the October meeting.

Saturday September 20, 2025 Elias Light DeMolay Chapter volunteered at Saturday's Bread, First United Methodist Church, Oneonta NY.

Another Masonic Golf Tournament is in the books!

On Saturday 14 teams representing 5 Lodges competed for the #1 Good Team Trophy with a new winner claiming the trophy, MacNeer Waffle House, representing Oneonta Lodge.

We all enjoyed the fellowship, golf, food and banter that goes along with a good golf outing. Only one complaint, no one found a ball in the woods with TED marked on it! I would like to thank all those who sponsored a hole, donated their winnings back to the cause and helped with the sign in ( Tom Fransisco and Pat Sherry ). Also a big thanks to Alex Brannan who was visiting his Dad in Canada as he takes care of the financial aspects of the tournament. I hope that next year we can get all the Lodges to sponsor a hole and even participate in the tournament. Thanks to Colonial Ridge Golf and the Waffle family for their continued support of our event.

So here are the results

There was only 1 skin on the day and was won by Schenevus Valley Team with a 3 on hole #2

Closest to the pin winners were
Hole #3 MacNeerWaffleHouse
Hole #7 Iron Man Team
Hole #10 Iron Man Team
Hole #13 Iron Man Team
