The Year of a Not so Busy Mason

Well the first month of the new Masonic Year/Season is now over. And as I posted before, I will not be running my “Year of a Busy Mason” this year because in theory I will not be as busy this year as I normally am due to the following.

  • Quit Wynnstay Chapter (4 meetings, 4 rehearsals, 2 committee meetings a year),
  • Quit Wrexhamian Lodge (8 meetings, 8 rehearsals, 4 committee meetings) a year.
  • Quit being the Assistant Provincial Grand Mentor in Craft and Royal Arch (Lots of work over the year).
  • Quit being a member of the Provincial Pathway Team.
  • Quit being a NWAMS committee member (Lots of work over the year).
  • Stood down as Secretary of MLIM.

So that is at least 30 evenings a year (a whole month), not to mention all the other work. All to say, I will not be running my normal yearly meeting posts this year. Saying that. Month one of the new season so far has included.

  • Committee Meeting = 2
  • Rehearsals = 4
  • SRIA Meetings = 2
  • Rose Croix Meeting = 2
  • Craft Meeting = 3

It is so good that I am not going to be busy this year.
