| The OS Lodge and Chapter No 3304 |
|
In March, James Higham (m) was installed as the 96th Master of the Lodge and in April, Dr David Foster (a) was installed as 6th First Principal of the Chapter. Thanks to the good offices of Philip Burt (c) an excellent dinner was enjoyed after both installations at The Savoy. Both the Lodge and the Chapter a few years ago decided to adopt and support The Almshouse of SS John, Sherborne on a permanent basis. Each gives £500 a year to the Amenity Fund. The total of £1000 is spent on the members and is independent of the Foundation Funds. It covers outings and many other general items helping to make life for the members more comfortable. In June, the Lodge presented the members of the Almshouse with a new large, non-flicker flat screen television, complete with a digibox. The Lodge will be celebrating its Centenary in 2009. It is hoped that there will be support for this event from OS who are masons but not members of the Lodge. If anyone is interested in either knowing more about, or joining the Lodge or Chapter, please contact Ian Baird on 01202 532159. |
