The lodge may have only operated with a skeleton crew, but the effort and experience was not lost on BFC Jeff Bowman as the lodge conferred the Second Degree of Freemasonry upon him last night.

Most of the brothers that participated during the degree held new positions in preparation for next year’s officer lineup that will be headed by Brother Senior Warden Todd Dow.

BFC Bowman’s degree concludes a very busy October; he becomes the fourth candidate of the lodge to receive the Fellowcraft Degree this year.

WB Jeff Crowder, current Master of Eastgate No. 155 served as Senior Deacon during the first section of the degree and as Tyler for the opening and closing ceremonies while WB Peter Morrison graciously served as Junior Warden for the second section and closing ceremonies. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to these fine brothers for assisting us in this endeavor.
