St Andrews #64 Brothers:
For the last few months, the St Andrews Merger Committee has been fulfilling the St Andrews' Motion to enter into discussions with Seneca Lodge #55 regarding a possible merger.
These discussions related to a number of proposals with the critical proposal relating to the name and legacy of St Andrews. That proposal was the incorporation of the name of our Lodge, 'St Andrews' into the future Lodge's name. The new name if the merger is approved will be Seneca- St Andrews #55, There is some additional work that still needs to be done, but the most significant issue based on all the input was the name of the new lodge.
On Wednesday June 17, 2026 (Stated Meeting) at 7:30, there will be a meeting to vote For or Against the Merger Proposal. This Proposal will include all elements agreed upon between St Andrews' and Seneca's Merger Committees including the new name. After a full discussion, the vote will be taken. This is a basic Yes or No vote. The majority required to pass the Proposal is stated in both the bylaws and the Officers Manual- Section D-3. It is two-thirds (2/3's) of the eligible St Andrews Master Masons present and voting. Voting will be by the show of hands in the affirmative (approve) and hands in the negative (disapprove).
In addition to this email, a letter will be sent by USPS 1st Class to your registered address and posted on St Andrews' page.
