Welcome to Lodge Barns O'Clyde 1018

Walter Graham, Master

It is with great humility, I am honoured to be installed as Master of this fine old Lodge.

I would like to thank the Past Masters and Brethren for having the confidence in me to elect me to this Office. It is indeed a privilege and I will endeavour to carry out my duties to the best of my ability.

My Installation Ceremony was carried out by Past Masters, Bro. Kenneth J.P. Currie and Bro. Andrew Clark in a very sincere and dignified manner.

I would also like thank all the Brethren of the Lodge for their support and guidance on my journey through Freemasonry.

I extend a warm welcome to all visiting Brethren to attend Lodge Barns o’Clyde. I am looking forward to meeting old friends and making new ones, and, to that end, I will also endeavour to visit as many Lodges as possible during my term in Office.

Find The Joker stands at £200. Tickets, only £1, are on sale at our next meeting, on 10th May.

The month started with Bro. Graham Ward P.M. conferring a F.C. Degree at Lodge Inchinnan  No. 1405 on the 5th April. Sadly, Bro. Ward passed to the Grand Lodge above on 7th April.

Find The Joker is building and is now at £200. At our last meeting, Bro. Colin Laird won £20 but didn't manage to turn the elusive Joker card. Tickets, only £1, will be on sale at our meeting on 28th March.

We have our annual P.G.L. Visitation on that date, headed by Bro. John P. McQueen S.P.G.M. and on 28th March, the Instruction Class will confer an E.A. Degree.

Having been won, Find The Joker resumes for its second run. Tickets, only £1, are on sale at our next meeting.

On 14th February, Lodge Cumberland Kilwinning 217 visit to confer the F.C. Degree and on the 28th, Bro. Jim Gardiner P.M, will confer the M.M. Degree.
