Saturday, 3rd October was intended to be the date of the Provincial Grand Royal Ark Mariner Assembly to be held at Tapton Hall, hosted the Carl Whitehead Lodge of Royal Ark Mariner, in the presence of the Provincial Grand Master, R.W.Bro. James Steggles. Sadly as we are all aware, it could not take place due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The names of the Brethren who would have been honoured are given below together with those who are to receive Royal Ark Mariner Grand Rank at the Grand Assembly in Great Queen street on Tuesday, 8th December, which has also been cancelled.
Accordingly it will not be possible, in either instance, for us to personally congratulate them on their well deserved honours. It does not, however, stop us, particularly those members of the Lodges concerned, to pick up the phone and have a word; a demonstration of Royal Ark Mariner Fraternal support.
