Meeting dates and recent events: Our next regular meeting will be held in September at which we will hold our annual elections. The date is September 27th, 2025, and is scheduled for Cambridge at 1pm.
Our most recent regular meeting was held on May 31st (Whitby) and featured a well researched and informative powerpoint entitled “William G. Davis, Freemason”, which was presented by RWBro Robert Kliaman. The presentation followed the Masonic career of the Premier of Ontario, as well as his father, and highlighted the numerous members of Provincial Parliament who attended and participated in his various degrees at Flower City Lodge 689 in Brampton.
Prior, was the presentation by WBro Istvan Horvath (March 29, 2025), regarding the Forget Me Not pin and its evolution from Germany before WW2, held in Hamilton, hosted by Electric Valley 100. It was preceded by a CoGP meeting at 11am, followed by lunch held at noon.
At the meeting in May, several topics were discussed, including an update from RWBro Stephen Magwood who is chairing the ad hoc History Committee to (a) begin to research options regarding the creation of a Masonic Museum, (b) address the process to acquire, curate and display Masonic artefacts, and (c) work with our Regional Representatives to ascertain whether we can locate and contact additional “pioneer villages” in this province and expand our Black Creek initiative.
RWBro Magwood reported he is taking our two most recently acquired portraits of two PGMs on the road, while also seeking a collaborative deal with a lodge to restore and host each one. As well, he has been in contact with both Upper Canada and Fanshawe (Pioneer) Villages to ascertain whether or not they would welcome and that we could assist to organise Interpreters. However, it seems there is a collective agreement at Upper Canada that would prohibit such an activity at their Village at the moment.
Following a brief report, via VWBro Bill Willis, regarding the Interpreters at Black Creek, who have now already begun their work in the lodge, RWBro Abe Washington again reminded members our meetings are open to all Masons, and that we continue to seek lodges celebrating anniversaries and involve The Heritage Lodge in the years ahead across our Grand Jurisdiction, including those who are assisting to promote our public presence and getting involved in a local Open House held at their lodge.
Check out our News section for video footage, taken at Black Creek in May 2023. The Lodge Room in The Village at Black Creek re-opened for visitors in September 2023, new Volunteers are being trained. Last year thousands of visitors were welcomed by our Interpreters and had all their questions answered. Please contact Bill Willis, Andrew Turk or George Burt to sign up.
