Open Day

Open Day

On Saturday 13th July the Pontypool Lodges are jointly holding an Open Day at Pontypool Masonic Hall, and using the Mon Light Blues Gazebo on the rugby ground of Pontypool Park, as part of the “Party In The Park” community event run by Torfaen CBC.

Our objective is to promote Freemasonry in Pontypool by talking to the public at the Gazebo, and inviting them to visit the Masonic Hall, where Brethren will talk with them and engage their interest in Freemasonry.  

The Gazebo will be erected on the rugby ground , at a time to be confirmed between 8.30 and 9.30 am. The Hall will need to be open until late afternoon, and similarly Brethren will need to be at the Gazebo until late afternoon.

Brethren who are available to be at the Gazebo or at the Hall for a few hours on Saturday 13th July , are asked to let their WM’s know so that further arrangements can be made. 

Contact (Worshipful Brother Martin Phillips) for further information.
