April 3rd 2007 Meeting

After a tasty dinner of sausages (Donated by RW Bro Lee Grove) and pancakes, dished up by W Bro Fred McGee, Bro David Wall and Bro James King, there was a meeting of the Wingham Lodge Corporation followed by one of the Committee of General Purposes.

Lodge opened promptly at 8 PM and the regular business was disposed of very quickly to allow time for the officers who were "Stepping Up" to prove themselves.  Elections were then held and W Bro. Allen MacDonald was acclaimed for a second year in the East.

Mr. Gary Adams was then received in due and ancient form and initiated into the Craft as the newest member of Wingham Lodge.

After the ceremony, congratulations were offered to the brethren participating in the work and Brother Adams thanked all those who took part.

RW Bro Larry Harper, who was attending on a fraternal visit added his congratulations to the candidate and the lodge and brought us up to date on his travels and trestle board.  He alluded to the fact that the Grand master will be attending our next meeting on may 1st, when we will be Installing the Worshipful Master and Investing the officers for 2007 - 2008.

After the lodge closed, the brethren returned to the Banquet Hall for dessert, coffee and fellowship.  Please see the photos below.

NOTICE

Please accept my apologies for the lack of information for the January and February meetings.  I have been travelling (Again).

Any brother interested in taking over as Web Master should contact me ASAP.  Otherwise the site may have to be abandoned as I will soon be leaving Wingham to live in Eastern Ontario.

I have enjoyed recording the lodge's activities on-line for all to share and it would be a pity if all of this information were to be lost.
