PGM

The meeting of Maen Clo Lodge No. 1451 on 20th May 2019 was a memorable occasion for the Province – R.W. Bro. John C. Hoult, the Provincial Grand Master for the Craft in North Wales, was Advanced into Mark Masonry.

The last Installation Meeting of our daylight Lodge, Eryri, saw the Installation of W. Bro. John Crump.

The meeting also saw Bro Martin Wynne Jones receiving his Patron Benevolent Collarette from the Right Worshipful Provincial Grand Master.

The Installing Master, W. Bro. Jacob Buis, Provincial Grand Sword Bearer, carried out the Installation Ceremony in a first class manner, very impressive indeed.

The Provincial Grand Master and the Provincial Team attended the Installation Meeting of Flint Mark lodge on Monday 4th March where they witnessed W. Bro. Tony Hayes install his successor, W. Bro. Paul Smith.

The Lodge was also presented with a Diamond Award Benevolent Collarette by the Provincial Grand Master who congratulated the Lodge on its support of the Mark Benevolent Fund.

Sixteen members from the Mark Province of North Wales recently attended a District Meeting in Spain. The following trip report was submitted by the PGM himself. It is clear that a good time was had by all.

Brethren, what happens on tour stays on tour, or so the saying goes but here is a brief resume of the triumphs and tribulations of the intrepid 16 who attended the District Meeting of Spain from 31st January to 3rd of February.

The arrangements made by our travel coordinator, W. Bro. Colin ‘Alan Whittaker’ Lemin could only be described as ‘perfecto’, we are all appreciative of his efforts on our behalf and if we are ever looking for a Provincial Travel Agent he stands a fair chance of getting the Office.

New Worshipful Masters were Installed at Snowdonia Mark Lodge and Eifl Mark Lodge in November 2018.
