St Wilfrid adventure-us

Stephan Kurth • May 15, 2021

As you may be aware from conversations at our recent zoom meetings, Amit & James have been busy planning some activities which are to supplement our usual social calendar.

These are planned to be of an outdoor/adventurous nature and are scheduled for the first Sunday of each month. An initial  draft list is below to give you a flavour of some of the ideas they have had. The plan is to provide opportunities to try out  perhaps new activities, meet up in different informal settings, have some fun  and hopefully give opportunities to people who might be interested in Freemasonry [or may not yet know they are interested!] to meet us. The activities are to supplement and not replace our other events and recruitment opportunities.

The attached list is an initial draft. Amit and James are keen to include other ideas and suggestions. Maybe you have an idea, skill/expertise or contact. If so, we would be grateful if you could let Amit, James or myself know.

After the disappointment when poor weather caused the event to be postponed in July, the second attempt to BBQ in September proved very successful with around thirty members, family and friends attending. The BBQ was generously hosted by Adrian & Annie with Adrian also acting as Chief Chef. The delicious food was complemented by specially brewed beers, courtesy of our resident Master Brewer Andy and his assistant Linda, together with wines and soft drinks. Many thanks go out too to everyone for the generous donations of salads and desserts. Fine dining, good drinking and excellent company! Happily on this occasion, the English summer weather was kind! Again, many thanks to everyone who was able to support or contribute to this event with particular thanks to Adrian, Annie, Andy & Linda for all their hard work. Their and everyone’s generosity has raised a further £715 for the Master’s Charity. Fantastic! From an enjoyment, social and fundraising perspective – the BBQ really was once again a great success

St Wilfrid Lodge were delighted to take up the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge again after their last outing in 2019 and despite the very mixed weather conditions the four walkers did themselves and the Lodge proud! It was an early start for Gerry, Joe, Paddy and Richard who left the Horton in Ribblesdale start point just after 7am. The Yorkshire Three Peaks includes Pen-y-Ghent , Whernside and Ingleborough . The walkers started their 25-mile route climbing first up Pen-y-Ghent then towards the Ribblehead Viaduct, up Whernside then down to Chapel le Dale, and finally up and down Ingleborough to finish back in Horton-in-Ribblesdale. Over 60,000 steps, twelve hours of grit & determination - a superb effort by everyone! Our heroes were raising funds for St George’s Crypt with which the Lodge has had a long association. Its not too late to contribute! Please support them generously using the link : www.justgiving.com/page/bhl-mason-1689178647402 All donations to support St George’s Crypt. Support was given en-route by the WM, Andy, his wife Linda, Jack & Stefan who ensured that they were fed and watered on their challenging task. Well Done Everyone!
