A Historic Meeting

Category : 2012 News

PH_visit3February 28th 2012 will forever be marked as a historic day for PPW Lodge. On this day, for the first time ever, we were visited by brethren from a local lodge of Prince Hall Masonry. Brother Lorenzo Rochester, Past Master & Past Dean, Brother Jean Joseph,PH_visit1 Recording Secretary and Brother James Lowe, Junior Deacon hailing from Doric Lodge #53 of Hempstead, NY broke bread (well fortune cookies as the dinner for the night was Chinese) and joined us in our meeting. Bro. Rochester gave a us a brief talk regarding Prince Hall Masonry. The feeling of fellowship, brotherhood and camaraderie was felt in the air. Hopefully this will be the beginning of a long lasting connection between lodges and brothers.

On Saturday January 14th, PPW #855 celebrated their After-the-Holidays Holiday Party at their old stomping grounds, Sullivan’s Quay on Port Washington Blvd. Just like old times, the brothers were out in large numbers, along with their spouses and children. It was also great to see a few of the newly initiated Entered Apprentices join in the festivities.

For the second year in a row, the brothers of PPW Lodge were there supporting the community by providing ID’s for children and adults under the MSID program of NY. This year was extra special as each family that participated not only received an ID free of charge but also a free FyrFlyz toy care of i-Star entertainment. Thanks again for the very generous donation.

On June 6th, 2011, we participated in the 21st annual Harborfest Dock Day and Craft Festival by providing Masonic Safety ID’s to children, adults and seniors. PPW Lodge no 855 has been participating for many years, providing this vital service free to the community. We met many great families and possibly some future members. Good job to all that participated.
