It is only fitting that, in 2014, the Freemasons of this District Grand Lodge of Carpentaria celebrate its 90 years of history. It is also fitting that at this Conference—the first time that such a Conference has been held in our District—the District of Carpentaria be recognised.
Ninety years is a very long time in anyone’s language but the hard work by our forefathers has realized a future sustained for this area.
They created this District through innovation and a desire to further our Craft.
They purchased land on which to build the temples, they performed the ceremonies and they realized their dreams of having a sovereign District Grand Lodge holden under the United Grand Lodge of Queensland.
It is that gratitude, respect and loyalty to our United Grand Lodge of Queensland that continues such a close association in this year of 2014.
The bonds of love, peace and harmony have never been stronger and it is that association upon which this particular celebration is founded.
