News from Grand Lodge -

In the big Charity Draw, the total sum raised was £34,160, which was an increase of £13,000 on last year.  Sadly, there didn't seem to be any winners from Renfrewshire West.

Also announced was the total raised so far for the Haiti Earthquake Appeal which now stands at £45,000!

One further item of news was that Grand Lodge have now approved the change of title for Lodge Ardgowan No. 1425, which now has the title of Lodge Inverkip Ardgowan No. 1425.

 

 

Well done to all at Lodge Doric Kilwinning No. 68 in their recent fund-raising efforts to support the Help for Heroes fund.  At present their efforts have raised around £4,000.

Stamp Appeal.

Brother Bill Crumlish 626 is appealing for used stamps from envelopes, postcards etc which will be forwarded to Ardgowan Hospice to raise funds.   This appeal will cost you nothing, just simply tear the stamps off the envelopes and hand them on to Brother Bill or any member of 626 who will happily pass them on.

Inverclyde Motability.

If you're shopping in the Oak Mall, look out for the motability scooters carrying the signs "Cared for by the Freemasons of Renfrewshire West - at the heart of the community since 1728".  This follows our sponsorship of the scooters for a period of 6 months and it is hoped that we might further extend the scheme if it proves popular.  The Province has just confirmed its continued support of this worthwhile project by extending its sponsorship of two motorised scooters for a further 12 months.
