Parachute Regiment Lodge 9315

London Masonic Bowlers Association bowls for charity

One of the oldest secular social and charitable organisations in the world, modern Freemasonry’s roots lie in the traditions of the medieval stonemasons who built our castles and cathedrals…

The lodge has held several social events such as witnessing the Tower of London Keys ceremony a lady’s festival at a hotel usually outside of London that provides opportunity for our families to enjoy the company that these types of events provide. Importantly we maintain links with the regiment and serving soldiers.

Delve into the rich traditions of Freemasonry as we gather to celebrate our shared values and principles

WHERE WE MEET

Our meetings are held on the 1st Saturday of March, June, September and December, at 60 Great Queen Street, London WC2B 5AZ. they usually start at 11am thus providing members ample time to travel to London to join the meetings.  The June meeting is the installation meeting.

The Parachute Regiment Lodge was consecrated on 5th June 1989. Though named for our Regiment the decision was taken not to restrict membership to serving or former members, though the majority do fit that criteria. Our membership is drawn from a wide range of military, security and civilian backgrounds who all adopt our ethos, to be the best in all that we do…

Engage in enlightening discussions, partake in meaningful rituals, and forge lasting connections with fellow brethren

W Bro Ian Keech LGR reports

With the sun now shining, the London Masonic Bowlers Association (LMBA) is relaunching its biannual bowls days, where all profits are donated to charity. 



The Green Crystal Trophy is back. The Summer London Inspired Masonic Bowls Occasion, (SLIMBO) will be held on Thursday, 23 September 2021 at the Metropolitan Police (Bushey) Bowls Club situated in Aldenham Road, Bushey, WD23 2TR. The event starts at 10.30am.
 
We play Triples in Greys in two alternating groups – each team playing four timed rounds, before the winners of each group play off for the final to hold the Green Crystal Trophy for a year. This format allows for a maximum of 24 Triples to compete on the day. The all-inclusive entry fee of £48 per Triple includes the fees and a two-course meal. Entries from Metropolitan Lodges and Chapters are encouraged and welcome. 

All profits made will be shared equally between two charities; the first nominated by the LMBA, the second nominated by the Winning Triple. Not only will you enjoy a day of bowling but also stand a chance of supporting your favourite charity with a donation. Playing SLIMBO is rewarding. On the last occasion, SLIMBO raised £450!

A new President for LMBA
We congratulate W Bro Julien Sampson on his being declared LMBA President Elect for ratification at our impending AGM.
