On the Double at Cerdic RAM!

A busy, well attended and very enjoyable evening was had by all at Cerdic RAM on Wednesday 22nd May where 35 brethren were in attendance.
There were many visitors attending, chiefly from Herbert Fuller 128 ( Wincanton) and Fidelity and Unanimity 348 (Taunton), to support Cerdic’s Commander Ken Crang and the new members Neil and Chris, the lodge also honoured with the presence of the PGM RWBro Phil Voisey.
The brethren witnessed a fine and rare double ceremony, conducted by the Worshipful Commander Ken Crang and his team of Officers, who thanked a number of brethren and visitors who stood in, particularly with little notice.
The two candidates, Bro’s Chris Waterhouse and Neil Tinkley are of course both very well known in the Province, for their Masonic work, and of course, both are members of William de Irwin Mark Lodge in Yeovil, by chance , where the Worshipful Commander of Cerdic RAM, is a member as well!
A very memorable evening, for Brothers Waterhouse and Tinkley.
With three new Elevated members in the Worshipful Commander’s year , it has been a very successful one, and WBro Ken is now preparing for and looking forward to, Installing Bro Matt Layzell, who was elected Commander Elect.
The PGM then presented a Grand Lodge Certificate to brother Neil Braginton, who had been Elevated at the previous meeting.

The Worshipful Commander thanked all the members for their help and support in his term, but especially his brother Norman, for keeping an eye on him throughout the year !
Then followed a most enjoyable festive board, topped off with a super response to the visitor’s toast from WBro Tony Wilcox.




The next meeting on Thursday 5th September is the Installation, when a certain Brother Matt Layzell, is being installed, into the Commander’s Chair. Do visit if you can!
