2009 Candidate Report

Brethren,

We are pleased to inform you that 2009 was an exciting year for Temple 6 and Freemasonry in regards to the number of Brothers who have become new members in this wonderful Fraternity. In 2009, Temple 6 initiated, passed, and raised a staggering number of Brethren into the Fraternity. The list is as follows:

Entered Apprentice: 28 Initiated
Fellow Craft: 24 Passed
Master Mason: 25 Raised

On more than one occasion throughout the year, our Lodge initiated, passed, and raised 5 or more candidates at one time! All that can be said about this accomplishment is . . . WOW! This is a true testament to the dedication of our degree teams and our active membership. Without all their hard work, this accomplishment would not have been possible.

Special recognition has to be given to Brothers Matt Barstow (2009 Head Coach), Mike “Lucky” Draper (2009 Asst. Head Coach), Gary Willis, and the rest of the Temple 6 coaching staff. Without their tireless efforts to coach, mentor, and support the development of our new members, the entire candidate initiation process would not have been nearly as successful in 2009.

Thank you Brethren for all your hard work and we look forward to another exciting year of Freemasonry in 2010!
