The Province of Worcestershire welcomed the UK National Heritage Day 2008 by throwing open the doors of many of the Masonic buildings for free access to the general public.

A number of Lodge Rooms were open on the weekend of 20th and 21st September

as part of the national scheme. Worcester Masonic Hall at Rainbow Hill was opened to the public, generating much interest from the local press. Graeme Collins, Press Officer for the Province, spoke to the Worcester Standard and explained some of the traditions of Freemasonry and information on how to become a Mason.

Reporters from the Worcester Evening Standard visited Rainbow Hill where the Provincial Grand Master explained "We're not a secret society, a Freemason will always be happy to declare that he is a Freemason. What people want to know is why there is this

ideaofaveilofsecrecy. ButlcancategoricallyaffirmthatifanyonewantstoknowanythingaboutFreemasonry,

Iwilltellthem."

Several other Halls within the Province held Open Days, including Stourport, which registered twenty four visitors and Redditch which counted in seventy seven visitors, over fifty of whom were not Freemasons. At Kings Heath, the Deputy Provincial Grand Master escorted those interested around the Temple, where there was a display of regalia, artefacts and an audio visual presentation. As a result of their Open Day, Malvern Masonic Hall has four potential candidates, one of whom made a 200 mile round trip for the occasion!

Old Carolian Lodge No I599, consecrated on l st September 1958 and Red Rose Lodge No 7600, consecrated on 5th September 1958, celebrated Golden Jubilee anniversaries recently. Established only a few days apart in 1958, each Lodge celebrated in style and their members and visitors enjoyed the very special festive boards commemorating 50 years of freemasonry.

Trmfrm*ffiffi ffiffid ffiduffiffittmn On 30th Octoffir at Halesowen Masonic Rooms there will be a session on running a White Table Evening. This is of interest to all Lodges for it is a relatively painless way of introducing non-masons to Freemasonry.

On November 3rd at Northfleld Masonic Rooms there will be the follow-up session to the very successful evening held last yeff on creating a Lodge Website. Here brethren will be able to see examples, exchange ideas and views and, it is hoped involve themselves in a self-help group which the Training and Education team plan to establish to carry forward the whole programme of building Lodge Websites.

In December we explore something a little different. On December 4th at The Ramada Hotel, Bewdley which,

incidentally, is the newest Masonic venue in the Province, there will be a seminar entitled Learning the futual. It is intended to give those attending useful and effective methods of committing ritual to memory and is based on well-proven methods.

Information about all these events is sent to the secretary of each Lodge and they have all details, but remember all are welcome.

Tenbury Masonic and Community Church Service - My wife and I had the pleasure of attending the Tenbury Masonic and Community Church service held in St Mary's Church Tenbury Wells on the evening of Thursday 25th September.

This is the second year The Lodge of St Michael No. 1097 has held the event and it was lovely to see a strong turnout by the Lodge members, their families and friends in support of the Church and its community all of whom were cordially invited. The service was led by Reverend Claire Lording who greeted everyone with a warrn welcome and community spirit together with the Choir and Organist .

The R W Provincial Grand Master Frank Spencer and his wife Amanda joined members of St Egwins Lodge of Mark and Royal Ark Mariners, together with masons from across the province, at George and Jenny Simpson's home on Sunday 20th July for a treasure hunt and cream tea.

Readings were given by W Bros Lionel Conyers, Alan Dale and John Moore together with an enlightening talk about Freemasonry and Spirituality by W Bro Kevin Bryant which dispelled a lot of myth members of the community may have held.

The collection of classic cars on show was worth the visit and for those who booked seats in the vintage Rolls, it was an afternoon to renlember. Best of all was the wonderful f,625 raised for the Provincial Grand Masters festival appeal.

one of the lessons Mike has learned is to be at the lodses in olentv of time. "It avoids stress all round," he said, "and it stood us in good-stead when we turned up at Northfield only to find the meeting was at Kinss HEath!" Banie Simoson echoeil Mike's words. '"we had never met btfore we bedame Provincial wardeins but Mike is a great_bloke and we're having a wonderful time," said Barrie. Like Mike he has beenwell supported by his wife Flazel.

He is a past master of the Lodge of Bon Accord. SW of Moselev Lodge and fW of George Taylor Lodge. Well, he needs to have something to do in his sfare time. In summer he is a deciicated cricketer. ''i keep wicket anci iri-the iast match'of rhe season I had a few teeth knocked out," he said,^"but I'll still be there asain next season!" Barry retired from West Midlands Police in 2000 as Detective-suoerintendent i/c of-murderinvestigations. Now he is a forensic archeologist and is ialled in to help solve murders.

much change there, then.

His forensic work has taken him all over the UK and also to Iraq for nine months,

several missions in the Balkans and once to Ascension Island, wheie, he says, he wad

looking for shipwrecked sailors.

"I found one in Halesowen called Dancer,"

he added.
