Tracing Board at Jubilee
 
During the course of most explanations of a tracing board the person presenting it points at various objects on the board which most people in the room cannot in fact see.

That was not the case when Paul Johnson undertook that piece of work for Jubilee Mark Lodge No 375 at Ulverston Masonic Hall.

Paul, who is the lodge senior warden, has quite deservedly earned a reputation as an excellent ritualist. I have witnessed him deliver the explanation, without so much as a prompt, on previous occasions.

However, he has now taken in one stage further and makes use of a screen and projector so that everyone can see what he is talking about. With the use of a remote control, he can stand some distance from the screen whilst delivering his work and, at the appropriate time, switch to the relevant image.
It was very impressive.
 
The round of applause that followed Paul being thanked by WM Reg Wilkinson was well merited.
 
Paul’s diary is full until the new year but after that you may be able to call upon his services if you have no candidate or other work.
