42 Our Lodge meets at the Kedron Masonic Centre which is situated in the northern suburbs of Brisbane Approx 7 km north of the C.B.D. of Brisbane. The Lodge at present has 62 members and an average of 20 members and 10 visitors attend each monthly meeting. Unfortunately we are like most other Lodges in Australia and are experiencing a decline in membership. The last initiation in Bon Accord Lodge was I on the 20 th . September, 1991. Seven years without a Candidate is a long time. We have had several affiliations however, from Lodges such as Stafford, Wilston and Sarina which has Maintained our membership, we see many Lodges surrendering their Charter and it is very saddening to Free Mason’: everywhere. The meaning of Bon Accord is given in most English dictionaries as “agreement, good-will, and good Fellowship, although the words are French in origin, their most common usage is Scotch. They are frequently used in titles of Scottish charitable and convivial societies and whey form the motto on the Arms of the city of Aberdeen, which is often called the “City of Bon Accord”! To us “Bon Accord” means loyalty to the Craft, to the Lodge and to each other, and the common usage Is “Happy to meet, sorry to part, happy to meet again? From the earliest, pre-foundation meetings, it was always envisaged that the April meeting would be Devoted to an Anzac Ceremony. At each of these services we utilised the “Vacant Chair” decorated with our National Flag and enhanced by a Masonic Apron, The tradition still continues today. The Lodge was consecrated on Friday the 4 December, 1959 by The Grand Master, Most Worshipful Bro. H. B. Milliner. There were 24 foundation members present on the night, and each were presented with a foundation jewel on the night of consecration. A good portion of the Brethren are from Scotia and Stafford Lodges. Hence we have been classed as a daughter lodge of Stafford Lodge and a sister lodge of Scotia. One member didn’t attend the consecration – or any subsequent meetings and his jewel was presented to W. Bro. L. Horder on16th. April, 1982 and is passed on to each new Master at the Lodge installation. The only remaining foundation member of Bon Accord is R.W. Bro. W.C.R. Harvey P.J.G.W. (Roy Harvey) who was a former Lord Mayor of Brisbane from 1982 to 1985 On behalf of the Members of “Bon Accord Lodge” l would thank you for starting and continuing such a worthwhile project which promotes good fellowship amongst Free Mason’s. L will advise when we select a Lodge to present the Gavel to, and of the date of that presentation. Yours faithfully W. Bro. D. A. Alsbury 2 nd letter, We at Bon Accord Lodge have held the Lodge Wyong Travelling Gavel since the 20 th November 1998. We have only had 2 meeting since then, one being our Christmas meeting in December and the other our February Meeting which was on Friday 19 th We have displayed the Gavel in front of the Alter and at the festive board at each meeting and it has attracted much interest from visiting Brethren. We have decided to present the Travelling Gavel to Cooroora Lodge No. 232, Pomona on Saturday 27 th February 1999. The reason for this is that Cooroora is a country Lodge and is Famous for the Murals painted on the walls. We thought that this would be of interest to other lodges. Pomona Lodge at Pomona is inland from Noosa just off the Bruce Highway and is approximately 90 minutes north of Brisbane, Cooroora Lodge No. 232 Pomona Meets 4 th Saturday in the Masonic Hall Pomona. Secretary: A.L. Mangan It has been an honour to be the holders of the Travelling Gavel for the last 3`Months, Thanks once again for all your efforts in promoting Freemasonry. ------:----
43 23 rd Lodge to receive this Gavel 27 th Feb. 1999 Cooroora Lodge No. 232 P.O. Box 232 Pomona; Queensland 4568 United Grand Lodge of Queensland Link address below Pomona Home | Queensland Places Worshipful Master for 1999, W. Bro. Geoff Richards – Secretary: W. Bro. Lee Mangan Please be advised that the Travelling Gavel was presented to the Worshipful Master of Warwick Lodge of the Provincial Grand Lodge Warwickshire, England, on Saturday 10 th July 1999 Lee Mangin, Secretary of Cooroora Lodge No. 232. I can only write what has been sent to me. It seems that when I received the letter from Warwick Lodge, it read a little different than the previous letter from Cooroora Lodge. However, I see it this way, there hasn’t been a man born that hasn’t done something wrong, if there is such a man that hasn’t made a mistake in life, I’d like to meet him, for he definitely is not human. Information about Pomona: Pomona is a town located at the base of Mount Cooroora at the northern end of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. With a population of, 1,004 (2006 census) The town was originally called Pinbarren siding and was renamed Pomona in 1906, after the Roman goddess of fruit and orchards. Pomona is 166 kilometres north of Brisbane, and approximately 30 minutes driving time from Noosa Heads. History: Now a heritage and lifestyle town and formally declared the region’s ‘friendliest town’ (2004 and 2010), Pomona was first settled by Europeans in the late 1880s, but had been home to the Gubbi Gubbi indigenous peoples for thousands of years before that. The railway to Pomona was opened in 1891. The town became the administrative centre of the Noosa Shire Council in 1909 until 1 December 1985 when the Council moved to it’s Tewantin premises. The original headquarters for the Shire were constructed in Pomona in 1911 on a site now used (since 1985) by the Cooroora Historical Society and Noosa Museum. Pomona is notable for three things: a relaxed streetscape of distinctive timber and art deco buildings, the heritage-listed Majestic Theatre and the annual King of the Mountain race up the nearby, Mount Cooroora. The Majestic, built in 1921, is claimed to be the world’s oldest continuously operating silent movie theatre built for that purpose. However, it is not the first theatre in the world in which silent films were screened. The Majestic has been a community-owned enterprise since October 2006. Australian musician Darren Hanlon’s album “Fingertips and Mountaintops” was entirely recorded in the Majestic Theatre.
