On Tuesday evening, July 24th, 2012, we were proud and honored to pass our four new Fellow Crafts, Brothers Scottie McLain, Richard Derflinger, Anthony Knight and Charles Caskey.  Scottie and Anthony were obligated by Wor. JR Knight, PM, Senior Warden.  Rick and Chuck were obligated by Bro. Ryan Bacaoco, Junior Warden.  Wor. JR Knight presented the Middle Chamber Lecture and Wor. Dennis Stahr gave the lecture.  Bro. Ryan Bacaoco delivered a perfect charge.

It was a fun and important evening as Samuel Warren Hackett Lodge set its own record of four passings in one evening and all the officers graciously assisted in this great event.
