Today Brethren from Kennard Lodge took part in what has become their annual charity walk along the towpath of the Monmouthshire Brecon canal from Abergavenny to Pontypool. Appropriately named “The Order Of The Towpath. A bracing walk of some 33,000 steps with both their health and charity benefiting from their efforts.
Saturday evening Llantarnam Lodge hosted their annual Horse Racing Night. A family friendly event open to members, their families and non Masonic friends to enjoy the sociable side of Freemasonry, while raising vital funds for the Masonic Hall. Everyone had a fantastic evening and to quote the Worshipful Master, Richard Beavan:
“Not a ‘ Jockey ‘ hospitalised and the Horses managed not to leave any ‘ Deposits ‘”
On Friday evening Kennard Lodge hosted a Quiz night with a V.E. Day theme. Those attending dressed in traditional 1940’s clothing to add that authentic V.E. Day touch ! The evening raised £620 towards the maintenance and renovation of Pontypool Masonic Centre. A huge thank you to the members of Kennard Lodge for organising the event, particularly the Worshipful Master, Clint Fisher and his Senior Warden Clayton Fisher.
Saturday evening saw the Freemason’s of Pontypool, their wives, family, friends and guests enjoy a fantastic Spring Ball at Green Meadow Golf Club. After a delightful meal entertainment was provided courtesy of the Tena Ladies and Tom Jones, followed by a D.J. and disco. The frivolities continued until midnight. Huge thanks to Worshipful Master Jon Davies and his wife, Angela, for organising the event and all those that assisted them from the Lodges at Pontypool. All four of the Pontypool Craft Lodges, Kennard, Trevethin, Llantarnam and Henllys, were well represented and all enjoyed a great evening. The generosity of those providing raffle prizes and those buying raffle tickets raised £830 towards the maintenance and renovation of Pontypool Masonic Centre.
Worshipful Brother Gareth White, Treasurer of the Board of Management, said at the presentation of the cheque “Thank you all for your generosity. Our building at Pontypool has been a home to Freemasonry for 100 years. This will help to ensure the building serves us for another 100 years.”
