Our Lodge is manning the Masonic Table on Sunday, September 20. We will have our members present, along with some Shriners, Eastern Star, and other Masonic Organizations in the East Bay.
We will have a plastic wading pool at our booth for helping dogs cool off in case the weather gets really warm.
Many of our members, our spouses, and our widows are active members of the Mission Bell Chapter No. 205, Order of the Eastern star.
Join Bay Cities Lodge in welcoming the Grand Master and other Grand Officers of the Masons of California.

One of our friends from Alameda Lodge has shared with us a list of all upcoming Masonic events in the Bay Area.
Most our members receive the Trestleboard by email.
Back in 1947, our country was reeling from many major changes. Word war II brought war to our nation. Over 400 thousand Americans died as a result of war casualties. Furthermore, the cold war was beginning…in June of 1948 the Berlin airlift started.
Meanwhile, California and the Bay Area were growing substantially.
The decade ending in 1920 was a period of a lot of suffering and change. In 1918, World War One ended, with an American death toll of more than 116 thousand. During 1918 and 1919, over 650 thousand Americans died of the Spanish Flu. The 18th Amendment ended most legal alcohol consumption, and the 19th Amendment finally gave American adult women the right to vote. The number of California Freemasons quadrupled from 21,579 in 1899, to 85,181 in 1921.
