The Old Reptonian Masonic Lodge

Members of the Old Reptonian Masonic Lodge had their usual meetups in London at the end of January and the middle of June this year.

The June meeting is when a new Master of the Lodge is Installed. This year, Ian McClary (Staff ’02) handed over to Peter Smeaton (N’72). Afterwards, there was time for refreshments in the spectacular new bar within Freemasons’ Hall, Great Queen Street, before heading to the Grand Officers’ Room for a Champagne reception followed by a fine three-course dinner with wine.

Dinner was open to OR boys and we were delighted to welcome three, who have all since expressed an interest in becoming members of the Lodge. At dinner, members collected £275 for charity with a total of £500 going to this year’s chosen charity, the RNLI.

For any OR girls wanting to become involved in Freemasonry, the Lodge actively promotes a strong relationship with the Order of Women Freemasons, which also recognises the distinctive character of single-sex spaces whilst also celebrating gender equality.

Integrity, Friendship, Respect and Charity – This is what we stand for. If any OR would like more information on this great organisation, then please contact Lodge Secretary, Mark Norton (M’86), or see details on Repton Life.
