Not to be outdone by Socrates Lodge recent Double celebrations, Socrates Chapter delighted in its very own Double this week, a double Exaltation, expertly choreographed by E Comp Mick Smith, Provincial Grand Director of Ceremonies. Huntingdon Royal Ach Ambassador, E Comp Jeremy Crompton, MEZ, praised his team for their motivation and dedication in welcoming the new Companions.
Both Exaltees, Bro Geoff Douthwaite and Bro Lee Swiggalaar completed their journey through Pure Antient Masonry together and are keen to encourage other Master Masons to follow their example. Both are visiting nearby Chapters in the very near future to help develop their knowledge of Royal Arch Masonry and share in the Companionship of the Order.
Back row: E Comps Phil Miles, Neil Handley DepGSupt, Brian Bennett, Jeremy Crompton, Cliff Summers, and Francis Margot.
