Regular Meetings

Lodge Canoblas Lewis # 806 Meets on the Second Monday of the month.

The Members will be at the Hall from around 7:00 PM; with the Lodge Tyling at 7:30

We welcome all fellow Freemasons to our meetings.

Dress Standards
As an Evening Lodge, The Brethren  generally wear a Dinner Suit, however, Visiting brothers should wear the attire of their own lodge; Thus, Daylight lodge Members are welcome to wear a Lounge suit, Members of other types of Lodges may wear the standard uniform of their lodge (for example, Motorcycling Lodges may wear their lodges Vests, or Leather Jackets when appropriate). Unattached or Called Off Masons may wear Lounge Suit or Dinner Suit.

The Apron: an Essential piece of a Freemasons Uniform

The Evening:
We like the Masonic Traditions, as these centuries old rituals unite Masonry & give a real purpose to the Evening

Lodge Canoblas Lewis takes pride in the Standard of our Masonic Work & we do our work properly & with all due reverence; however, Our prime Focus within the Lodge is in the Sincerity of the Work

As a Lodge, we accept that we are all on our own Masonic journey , thus we do not interrupt or compromise the work of others of the evening as we like to see that work is completed in a timely manner!

Our Lodge is formally closed with the Singing of Advance Australia Fair.

The South
With the formal part of the evening over, we retire to the buildings South for a light supper.

During Supper, there will usually be short speech, typically by a Lodge Member (for 5 or so minutes) on a topic that the Brethren will find interesting, however, we frequently have guest speakers doing more in-depth talks.

The Junior Warden will hold a Raffle for the evening, the price of the tickets is $5, proceeds go to the Lodges Charity Account

Food is predominately Finger Food (this varies from month to month).

In addition to Beer & Wine, Tea & Coffee are served, as are a selection of soft drinks; which include diet soft drinks.

We try to link the Supper & the Work of the evening to ensure that the entire evening is a positive one.



Closing:
We Close the evening formally by the singing of the Junior Wardens Toast, Followed Immediately by Auld Lang Sine (as we like the Scotch language of Robbie Burns!).

After the formal closing, members & visitors can stay on & enjoy each others company whilst the South is cleaned up by the Stewards.

So Mote it Be!
