Imperial Mark
 
Business meeting 14th October 2025 at Blackpool Cricket Club
The meeting was held at the Cricket Club by dispensation.
The WM: WBro. Andrew Stansfield opened the Lodge at 6.30pm.
 
WBro. Cross acted as guest DC for the night.
The WM worked through the business on the summons, including the ballot for the WM for the ensuing year, with WBro. Clive Gitsham having agreed to take on the role. Unfortunately, WBro. Gitsham was unable to be present on the evening to accept the office.
WBro. Chris Sage was also reelected as treasurer of the Lodge.
The business being completed, the WM closed the Lodge and everybody adjourned to the bar area for drinks and onto the festive board.
Lively discussion with a friendly atmosphere accompanied an excellent meal of chili, chips and rice followed by a large slice of chocolate fudge cake with cream!
A raffle was held which raised £50 for Charity.

The Brethren left for home at a reasonable time with their masonic and corporeal requirements suitably sated.
