On a gloriously sunny day (much appreciated by the ProvGStwds on parking duty) the 2015 Provincial Grand Lodge was held at Sheaf Close on Thursday 21 May. Almost 400 brethren attended with the Hall full to capacity.
At the meeting the Provincial Grand Master, RWBro Max Bayes, rewarded WBro Max Griggs, for his significant effort in supporting the Province both at Its former St George's Avenue premises and at the new Sheaf Close centre. The PGM bestowed on him the Provincial Grand Master’s Certificate of Merit.
The PGM went on to pay glowing tributes to two of his Provincial Executive who were standing down, VWBro Vivian Thomas retiring as Deputy Provincial Grand Master and WBro Norman Pope retiring as Assistant Provincial Grand Master.
The Provincial Grand Master was pleased to appoint their replacements, WBro Trevor Boswell as Deputy Provincial Grand Master and WBro David Burton as Assistant Provincial Grand Master.
There were also changes in the Provincial Secretariat with WBro Mike Caseman-Jones being appointed as Provincial Grand Secretary and WBro William Diggins being appointed as Assistant Provincial Grand Secretary.
