The Mark Province of West Lancashire
Acting Officers Sunday Luncheon. 1st June 2025
'St. Annes Palace' 18, Garden Road, Lytham St Annes
 
Set off early as usual and I know you will find this hard to believe but we went straight up the on ramp for the M60, straight over the High Level Bridge on to the M61, M6, M55 no traffic all the way, mind you it was Sunday morning, but what a nice change.
Arrived in good time, had a mooch round as usual, this Masonic Hall really is like Pandora’s Box, once you climb the stairs to the first floor it goes on forever and it really is in First Class condition, everywhere is clean, smart and well maintained.
Everyone gathered round in the lounge bar area, all the Ladies looking very elegant  and summery and the gentlemen didn’t look bad either, lots of happy chat, smiles and the genuine handshakes we share as Mark Masons.
Our PGM R.W. Bro. Keith Alan Beardmore G.M.R.A.C. welcomed everyone to this special occasion and thanked W. Bro. Mark J. Taylor PrGJW and W.Bro.David Atkinson PrGSW for arranging and overseeing this special Luncheon, he also thanked the Executive Officers for their hard work during the past year along with all the Acting Officers who attended lots of Team Visits. He also said let’s not forget all the support we are thankful for from our wives and partners, which we all much appreciate.

Last but not least he thanked everyone for attending and hoped they all enjoy the meal, have a pleasant afternoon and have a safe trip home to all parts of the Province.

Stay Safe. Mark Well.
