Brethren: The One Hundred and Sixty Second Semiannual Communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of New Hampshire, F.&A.M., will be held at the Masonic Temple, 1505 Elm Street, Manchester, NH on Saturday, November 16, 2019. Grand Lodge will open at 9:30 A.M.
Masters and Wardens in the regalia of office and the Lodge Representatives must attend. If a Master, Warden or Lodge Representative is unable to be present, he should designate a member of his Lodge as his Proxy. The combined Credential/Proxy forms are in the possession of and will be distributed by the Lodge Secretary.
It is the expectation of our Grand Master that all Masters, Wardens, and Representatives (or their proxies) will be in attendance. This is important, because your Lodge will not have voting representation, nor will it receive pertinent and beneficial information to report back to the Lodge. The attendance of voting members will be determined by Voting Cards which will be issued at the time of registration and will be turned in at the close of the afternoon session. Lodges must be represented at the Opening and Closing of Grand Lodge in order to receive credit for the day.
The Credentials Committee will be located in the first-floor lobby. ALL DELEGATES FROM LODGES, ALL MEMBERS OF GRAND LODGE, AND GRAND REPRESENTATIVES ARE REQUIRED TO REGISTER WITH THE CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE BEFORE THE 9:30 A.M. OPENING OF GRAND LODGE.
Admission to the Semiannual Communication will be by presenting a current Dues Card. Dress for Line Officers will be Morning Suit and dress for Grand Lodge Officers will be Tuxedo with full regalia.
