On Saturday the 23rd of April, The Old Verulamians Lodge, 7988, hosted us at Ashwell House, St. Albans, and helped to raise Brothers Izu and Rob in a ceremony that was enjoyed by all attending. The work was split between members of OVs and Salisbury Union, with their Master, W. Bro. Paul Moss leading from the Chair.

What a day at Ashwell House in St. Albans. Starting off with a meeting of our Sister Chapter, Concord, we then moved on to the Lodge meeting, and what a meeting it was.

In a high quality ceremony, two new alumni of The University of Hertfordshire were Initiated in to Freemasonry in a ceremony held at Mayflower Place, Hertingfordbury. This was followed by a lively Festive Board where amongst our guests were a number of Brethren from sister University Scheme Lodges.

This morning Jack Crosby was Installed as our new Worshipful Master in a ceremony which included the Obligation of Master being given by his father, David Crosby.

For our October meeting we teamed up with the Fleet House Light Blues Club (FHLBC). During the day they had been hosting the 2021 New And Young Masons Club Conference at the Ashwell House Masonic Centre in St Albans, the same place we were due to host our meeting.

The University Scheme set a challenge. To walk a copy of the ‘DKW Cup’ through out the country, while at the same time raising money for the Grand Charity to split amongst the charitable interests of the Late Prince Phillip.
