BRISTOL — Mark your calendars for two upcoming opportunities to gather with friends, enjoy a hearty meal, and support local charities at the Monthly Community Break- fast, sponsored by the Sawhege- nit Chapter #52 of the New Hampshire Eastern Star. The breakfasts will take place on Feb- ruary 8th and March 8th, from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at the Masonic Lodge, located at 61 Pleasant Street in Bristol.
Proceeds from the break- fasts will benefit various char- itable initiatives supported by the Order of the Eastern Star, a global fraternal organization dedicated to charity, truth, and loving-kindness. Attendees can expect a welcoming atmosphere and the satisfaction of contrib- uting to meaningful causes while enjoying a delicious meal.
Sawhegenit Chapter #52, the event's sponsor, meets on the third Monday of every month at 7:30 p.m. at the Ma-

derness on the first and third Sunday of each month at 2:30 p.m.
