A very interesting evening

A very interesting evening

Ormskirk Masonic Hall was well attended when over 57 members and guests came together to witness the installation ceremony of Stanley of Bickerstaffe Lodge No 3511. The master David Paton welcomed everyone to the ceremony before saying: “It is usual for us to commence with singing the opening ode, but as you can see we have no organist, and at the moment we have no master elect, this brethren could be a very interesting evening.”

During the afternoon the stiff breeze often presented a challenge to the competitors which added humour amongst the players with golf balls constantly spinning out of control. At the end of the competition the player’s ranks were swelled when the Ormskirk and Bootle Group Chairman Frank Umbers and others joined them for a well-earned drink at the 19th hole.
