Camden Lodge 159

Congratulations to all officers of Camden Lodge 159 on a great inspection.  Maybe I am a little biased, but I think we put on a great degree.  Thank you to our Worshipful Master for all the time he put in to prepare us for this inspection.  I know a lot of us get very nervous [...]

At the last meeting we discussed ways to get new members to come to lodge meetings.  It happens too often that candidates receive a degree, usually just EA and never return.  I am not sure if it’s not what they thought, or they are overwhelmed with the work that must be done.  I think this [...]

During his presentation he mentioned the name of an unusual Lodge named, Arts & Sciences Lodge (Ohio). I thought I would put something together on Lodge names. Did U Know? Lodges are named for a number of different [...]

Brethren, This story was written in 2009 and sent to me in 2010 by W. Bro. Ed Halpaus. It makes some really great points and raises some questions, at least for me. Did the Lodge try to contact the suspended Brother anytime during his 30 years of suspension for non payment of dues? I will [...]
