Regular Meetings Of Manoah Lodge No. 141 Will Be Postponed Until Spring 2022.

Posted on By 3Ruffians

Dear Brethren,

Given due consideration, and on a balance of caution, VW Bro. Morris Soer, the Worshipful Master of Manoah Lodge No.141 has determined not to hold Lodge meetings until the spring of 2022.

While the Grand Lodge of BC and the Yukon issued a blanket dispensation on June 21, 2021 for the resumption of Lodge meetings under certain COVID-19 restrictions, the high and growing number of COVID-19 cases in BC, along with the prevalence of the highly contagious Delta variant warrants a prolonged period of caution, particularly among our aging membership.

Any hopes we had for a possible Election of Officers on September 11, 2021 and an Installation of Officers on October 9, 2021 are delayed. We will contact everyone with updates as they become available.

Best wishes to you and your families for both good health and good spirits,

John McIntosh, Secretary
Manoah Lodge No. 141

Manoah Lodge No. 141 Benevolent Donation

Posted on By 3Ruffians

Dear Brethren,

Back in the fall of 2019, we made a local benevolent donation to one of our few local troll fishermen to enable him to travel to Victoria for a long and periodic series of cancer treatments. You may recall my reporting the following spring on his elderly mother, Mary, being awarded the Oueen’s Volunteer Medal for her years of selfless service to the community. The Ucluelet town Council Chambers were packed to overflowing for that happy event. (See video below)
