Morecambe Trip

What is a Masonic Toast

A festive board, or dinner, normally follows a lodge meeting. While fairly formal with speeches and toasts it is marked by the sound of friendly discussion, sometimes singing and plenty of fun and laughter.

On the subject of formal Masonic toasts the format of these vary with the lodge but there is always a toast to the Queen and to The Grand Master followed by others which vary according to the ceremony. For instance when there is a new initiate he is toasted and often responds. In some lodges they sing the Initiates song.

Morecambe Trip

Southern

On the 14th June the members of Audenshaw Fellowship boarded the coach for their Annual Trip. This year’s destination was sunny Morecambe.
We stopped on the way for a lovely break at Barton Grange Garden Centre in Preston, where we viewed the beautiful surrounding and fabulous displays. There was also the opportunity to spend time by the river, to drink tea and try the mouth-watering sandwiches and cakes.
It was then off to Morecambe sea front. Sun, sea and sand with something for everyone to do…. Lazy around on the beach, stroll down the prom, visit the coffee shops and bars or a cheeky dance with Eric…. which our chairman  Donald Roberts did not let pass by.
A fun and fabulous day was had by all…….
