An Exceptional Fellow Craft Degree at Dormer Lodge.

Dormer Lodge enjoyed an outstanding meeting on Saturday, May 23, 2026, centred on the successful passing of Bro. John Offin to the degree of Fellow Craft. The ceremony was both exceptionally well-attended and masterfully executed.

The ritual work throughout the evening was of the highest standard. Bro. Shaun delivered the extended Second Degree working tools with great skill, while W. Bro. John Arnold provided a faultless presentation of the extended Second Degree Tracing Board. Adding to the significance of the occasion, Bro. Neil delivered a perfect rendering of the Second Degree Charge—a rare and appreciated highlight.

Following the ceremony, Bro. Neil also gave an insightful presentation on the Quatuor Coronati Lodge. He highlighted the prestige of the Order, whose members are renowned for their academic approach to Masonic history, conducting research to a PhD level.

The evening was brought to a close under the expert leadership of the Worshipful Master, whose consistent excellence ensured the meeting was a resounding success for all in attendance.
