Last night we performed a Double Third Degree Ceremony on Bros Jeff Dole and Nick Jelicic. It was the first time in many years that Yeronga had conducted a double Third Degree and we were very pleased with the ceremony.
Both candidates performed extremely well and the ritual work was of a high standard. Congratulations to all involved.
We were very pleased to welcome a number of visitors from both UGLQ and Scottish ritual working lodges.
A very special visitor was Jeff Dole's brother Mark, the Worshipful Master of Colonel Light Lodge in Adelaide, South Australia. Mark was present for Jeff's Initiation last year and made the trip back up to see him take this most important step.
We have a very busy schedule coming up, with 5 new candidates being balloted for last night. In November, Stanley Lodge will again assist us with a Second Degree on Bro Damian Poi. This will be followed up by two Yeronga meetings also in November. On each night we will be conducting a Double First Degree. In December we will also be conducting a Double First on a father and son - Richard and Brenton Arthur. This will cap off a great year for our lodge.
