Seek out a man locally whom you suppose to be a Free-Mason and ask him about it.You just might thank me for this advice.tom.;)

[Lou6PPC]

I'm in.
A Fellow Craft now, will be raised in January.

[25074]

It's good to see the support we have so far for a Blue Lodge forum.

I think we need to get the word out to other Brothers who may not know that we are trying to get this going.

I will be Junior Warden on St John's day next and I am very excited.

I have a lot of memory work to get done soon as well. Wish me luck

Check your Grand Lodge for your state....
http://www.pagrandlodge.org/

+1 on the votes.

[G27Chief]

You know when we think back on our youth, my time spent in DeMolay, Kinghthood, and in the State line of DeMolay are the best I spent. The fact that I am a memeber of the masonic bodies, is a direct relation to the men that led us as advisors, my dad included.

Let us keep the traditions of this Brotherhood going, by attending our local Lodge, and being active Masons.

[pastmaster]

Just discovered this post from a post on General Non-Glocking.

Add another YES vote.

[cop414]

Count this PM in!

[jetboatdriver]

Finished my petition, now waiting on birth certificate....looking forward to going my uncles and cousin and a host of friends.

[jobob]

My father was a Mason. He passed away when I was only 8, so he never talked to me about it. Maybe I'll look in to it.

Hey, jetboatdriver. They drive jet boats down your way? I thought I was at the center of the jet boat universe!

You are, mine is not a competition boat, a Yamaha 270HP dual engine.

I haven't gotten it wet in a couple of years, really Jonesin' to get it wet again. Seems life got in the way of play. My son thinks I should change my name to Jetboatparker :animlol:

[jobob]

Ha! Souns like your son has a sense of humor.

I'm retired now, but it used to be that part of my law enforcement job was patrolling the Snake River in Hells Canyon. It was fun, except when it was 110 in the Canyon. My boat was 24' with a single Ford 460, Hamilton 212 pump. Kinda puny by Snake River standards. Now I'm looking at taking part of my retirement money and getting a small (18' or so) jetboat. I just don't know if I can afford to keep one in fuel!

Sorry for hijacking the thread.

[Gunfitr]

Sorry for the late reply but I just found the thread, I'm in, great idea. PM Aiken Lodge 156, Aiken, SC, KCCH, KYCH, AMD, Knight Masons, York Rite College, PP Aiken County Shrine Club.

[Mrs. VR]

Folks, as it stands right now, before my post, you've got 34 definite YES votes, and 41 posters. I'll add a vote, obviously, I'm not a Mason, but I am a PGWA and a member of Eastern Star, and my whole family is Masonically affiliated.


The other 7 posters SOUND like they want to vote yes, so I'll check with Eddie or Patricia and see if that counts for you, but you'll still need 8 more then.

[PeterJasonMN]

Make that 7. I'll help.

[JayPap]

Just curious I don't think a lot of people read this area, but for you guys checking back hows membership in your area? We have eight new guys since September and just voted on a couple more, makes for a busy year. Jay in Mass.

Last I knew, we still need about 7 or 8 more people to say they want a Masonic forum before we can get it going. If you know people on GT that are Masons, get them to come here and post a message

[mmsig229]

Count me in too!!!!!! SW this year in Blue Lodge, 32ND in the Valley of Cleveland, and will be joining York Rite in the Spring. Well, back to the slide show. I'm learning the MM lecture for inspection. Wish me luck....

I am in for it as long as I don't have to sit in the East AGAIN. :supergrin:

[Ender]

count me in for the vote; not a Mason, but every few months i read about them here on GT and get really curious.

[xd9er]

I'm in, On The Level.

Thanks to Lt. Doug for bringing this to my attention. I'd have never known about it otherwise. Awesome Idea. I'll head over to the S&W board to see if anyone would be interested in joining GT to participate in a Blue Lodge forum. There were several freemasons there last time I participated.

How long will it be before someone asks if the "G" stands for Glock? ;)

[CaptDoug04]

Any further on this request?!?! :wavey:

[jetboatdriver]

Sent Mrs. VR a message to see where the count stands or if we are close enough to go. I asked her to post a response here

[RED64CJ5]

Add me to the count.

[Mrs. VR]

I recounted, and picked up one more from my first count, plus a few more, brings us to 41 yes votes, anyone wanna double check my count?

[ruralpatrol]

My last post was a vote (in case it wasnt counted). Or you can count this one.

[gloxter]

My application is filled out, waiting to submit (and find time to do the work).


Hopefully that counts as a yes vote.

We stand at 45 as of this morning. Not including the people who were asking for other information.

Come on guys we just need 5 more.

PJMN has more friends....er....uh.....contacts :supergrin: than that.

[Bilbo Baggins]

very nice to see this thread coming back to life. I will have to ask someone to take over the lead on it for me since I only get online about once every other week or so I will not be able to keep up with this at this time .
Thanks mike

Be happy to, unless someone who is already in wants to, I am submitting my petition this week, just finally got my birth certificate to complete it.

[El Duderino]

I think it's a great idea.

[Duncan223]

YES, I think a section about Freemasonry would be cool.

I'm in.

[G-G-Glock Unit]

My grandpa was a Mason and I have been talking to a Mason in my area thinking of joining so if that counts count me in on this forum

[AnimalK]

Count me in.

CAVEAT: We could enforce the forum TOS regarding "troll" and bashing posts. Anybody crapping on threads like a {now banned} poster from a few months ago in a Masonic thread-- can cheerfully be "booted" via reporting to a moderator. We may be able to police ourselves as we do in the Other Alternative Forum...

[Razoreye]

Masons are evil! But count me in. :supergrin:

[JayPap]

Hello, I posted a while back about membership in your area. I meant your Lodge.

We have ten new gentlemen since September and two more just voted on. I was curious as to membership in other states or areas.

Oh and some eye candyhttp://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t269/jaypap/JJPDSCN0617-1.jpg

<-- Female, can't be a Mason. :sigh:

One of my good friends was a Mason before he passed away and I find the subject very interesting, so please add me to the count!

Sorry, ma'am!

Fixed!

[RF7126]

I'll vote for it if I can, just to learn more about it. :)

[Cochese]

I am not a Mason, but I am fascinated and ready to learn.

[Eddie C.]

Okay everyone. I will try to set it up tomorrow afternoon. It will be in the Group-Related Club Forums.

Please someone write a title and description you want written for the Club. Then email or PM it to me. I'm thinking 'Freemasons Club' would work for a title. Then write something like :

'A place to learn and find out about the Freemason's way of life'. Or something similar....

I know I volunteered to push this forward, but I am not a Mason yet, I think one of the others who are should do that part.

Eddie, thanks for taking care of this for us.

Anyone who is MM want to volunteer?

[25074]

I think there were a few Past Masters posting in here.

Might not be a bad idea to have a PM do it.

I am Junior Warden and can help if need be.

Good job on getting enough votes guys!!!!

[Eddie C.]

Okay folks. You guys are up and running in the Group-Related Club Forums. Thanks everyone, and thanks to Mrs. VR for keeping on top of this for the members. Enjoy.

I am a Senior Demolay, a MM, member of AASR, York Rite, Commandary, Shrine, and Grotto. I belong to three Lodges in Texas and have been a Mason since 1975. I am glad to see the formation of the Freemasons Lodge here at Glock Talk. Let me know if I can be of assistance on the Forum.
