There was a Rededication and Consecration Ceremony on Saturday 20th. June in Ballerup Hall,. this was carried out by the Provincial Grand Lodge of Renfrewshire East headed by the Right Worshipful Provincial Grand Master Brother David A.

The Ceremonial work as expected of P.G.L. was of an excellent standard and fully appreciated by the Brethren of the Lodge.

This was followed by a beautiful dinner and thoroughly enjoyable Harmony, also in Ballerup Hall .

A superb evening was had by all.

On Saturday 27th. June the Lodge held their Annual Charity Dance in Douglas Hall. The event was a huge success the attendance being at capacity. The Brethren and their partners danced the night away to the magnificent group Pipe Dream. During the evening the Worshipful Senior Warden Brother Hugh Wright, whose responsibility it was to organise the event, did a magnificent job culminating in him undergoing leg waxing for charity. This coupled with a sponsored walk or bike round the island of Millport and other events during the year meant that the Lodge handed over  £5000  to the charity of their choice which this year was the Special Needs Olympic Team.
