At the G Lodge Cafe.
On March 13, 2024, Lair No. 3 undertook an outing to the Washington Memorial Chapel, upon the suggestion of Jeff Sivek, who is a docent at the chapel. Eight men gathered at the G Lodge Cafe, just outside the village of Valley Forge, Penna., for a lunch. Following lunch, we traveled to the national headquarters of the Patriotic Order Sons of America, of which Dan Morrison is a member. Then the group proceeded to the Washington Memorial Chapel in Valley Forge Park. Jeff Sivek gave a tour of the building and then we ascended into the carillon tower where we met the carillonneur and heard a him perform on the 58-bell carillon.
