On Wednesday night at our meeting we also made another presentation. This one was to the Revd Ian Gamble Rector of Donaghadee Parish Church. This was given to Rev Gamble on behalf of ourselves and Donaghadee Blue Banner LOL 781 to mark the Quadricentennial of Donaghadee Parish Church and as a token of our thanks for the support and help that Rev Gamble has given to both lodges over the years.

Last night's meeting was our election of officers. Which saw a new WM and DM along with a new team joining them.

We also presented 10 year badges and bibles to 3 members who are moving into senior lodges. We would like to wish Bro's Creighton, Dunbar and Quee all the best with their achievement into the Senior order. They have been exceptional members during their time within the junior lodge.

Last night at our monthly meeting we along with JLOL 68 Portavogie handed over a cheque for £566.31 to Mrs Maud Brown the local fundraiser officer from Friends of the Cancer Centre. This money was raised during the annual County Down Junior Orange parade held in May in Donaghadee. Thanks to everyone who helped us raise this fantastic amount for a great cause.

Yesterday we joined other lodges in the junior district to head to Londonderry to visit The Siege Museum. Everyone had a really enjoyable day with a tour of the museum, Memorial hall and the walls. As it was the start of the Maiden City Festival there was a lot for the members to see in the wall with the period actors on the walls. @
