Wheaton Lodge No. 269 History

Over the last century and a half, Wheaton Lodge has been part of quite a bit of history. There are those who believe that Wheaton Lodge was instrumental in helping the city of Wheaton become the county seat. A number of well known men from the area have been members over the years. Lieutenant Marcellus Jones, a Past Master of the Lodge, is reputed to have fired the first shot at the Battle of Gettysburg. And there's the determination of the members who kept the Lodge going even after a fire nearly destroyed the building in 1949.

Brethren,
We were pleasantly surprised when our DDGM and Assistant DDGM showed up for the official visit wearing their Hawaiian shirts. Most everyone who owned a Hawaiian shirt wore it with his suit. We had chips and salsa for snacks and our newest masons were able to participate in part of the introduction and work with the Intender program. We had one of the most fun and well executed visits I have ever attended. The pics will be posted to our webpage very soon. Also, please remember that Elvis night is fast approaching so make sure you have your glasses and mutt chops ready.

Fraternally,
WoBro Jeremy Sanders
