The 2nd annual Lodge Cookout will again be held at Brother David Schleyer home on Saturday August 23rd at 1:00pm. We hope to see many of our brethren and their families there as we gather together, socialize, and have a good time.

People are encouraged to bring something for the cookout, but it is not required. If you are planning to bring something either leave a comment here or contact Brother Brian Harrison directly.

Again, we look forward to seeing you all on the 23rd at Dave's house as we begin to get back into our Masonic activities. If you have any questions you can post a comment here or contact Dave or Brian.

On Sunday June 29th at 2pm the Friends of Stark Park will kick off their 2014 Summer Concert Series, and it will run till September 14th. The Summer Concert Series is a summer long set of events featuring many great live performances and is sponsored by Washington Lodge #61 F and A M. All Brethren are encouraged to attend the many great events.

The FSP is an organization whose mission is “to develop, revitalize, maintain and protect the heritage and recreational use of Stark Park as an historic asset of the City of Manchester and will continue their work of restoring Stark Park to its former glory".

General John Stark Park is named in honor of New Hampshire’s own hero, General John Stark. John Stark is the man who famously said "Live Free Or Die; Death Is Not The Worst of Evils." which lead to our State motto (in 1945). For the Brethren, it should also be noted that John Stark was a Freemason and one of George Washington's Generals during the Revolutionary War.
