Worshipful Brother Brett Varker, the Assistant Provincial Grand Master, recently joined the brethren of the Manadon Lodge of Royal Ark Mariners 50, as the presiding officer at their installation ceremony.

The Worshipful Commander, Worshipful Brother Andrew Paterson, after welcoming the Provincial Team, he presented some wonderful Charitable cheques totalling £300 for the Devon Mark Charity Association and the Provincial Grand Masters Fund.

The next item of business was to install his successor, Brother Mark Stevens, which he did in an excellent manner in a heart felt ceremony. Worshipful Brother Stevens then went on to appoint and invest his sons, and the rest of his crew for the year.

 

Following the meeting, the brethren joined the new Commander at the festive board, which was full of fun and harmony.
