LODGE LOCATION AND MEETING ACCESSIBILITY

Meeting Structure for Maximum Impact

As a Lodge of Research and Information, we'll meet quarterly at Masonic Temples across Michigan, making participation accessible to more brothers while building statewide connections.

Proposed Meeting Schedule

  • January: Sault Ste. Marie - Honoring Hobaugh at his home lodge
  • April: Grand Rapids area - Serving Western Michigan
  • July: Detroit area - Reaching Southeast Michigan
  • October: Traverse City area - Including Northern Michigan

All meetings will be on Saturdays to accommodate travel, with virtual participation options for those unable to attend in person (non-tyled portions only)

Between Meetings

The work continues year-round:

  • Conduct oral history interviews in your local area
  • Develop content for our publications
  • Participate in committee work via video conference
  • Build connections with veteran Masons near you
  • Research and write at your own pace
