How to Join?

Our tradition was to wait for you to seek Freemasonry membership entirely of your own free will and accord. Today, however, we allow our members to selectively invite men of good character, who will be a credit to our Masonic fraternity, ensuring they understand the many Masonic fraternity benefits.

Keep in Mind

HAZING: There is absolutely no hazing permitted in the Masonic fraternity. ATTENDANCE: There are no attendance requirements for those interested in Freemasonry membership. RELIGION: Freemasonry is not a religion. Your religious beliefs are your own; however, you must believe in a Supreme Being. A SECRET SOCIETY: Freemasonry is not a secret society. Our members do not hide their affiliation with us, and those looking to join Freemasonry will find our buildings well-marked and often available for community use. While there are a few confidential handgrips and passwords used to confirm membership, we have no secrets concerning our purpose and programs. Many of our activities are open to family and friends, showcasing the Masonic fraternity benefits. MEMORIZATION: Like all fraternities, Freemasonry has impressive ritual ceremonies that date back centuries, presented from memory by officers who are developing their leadership and public speaking skills. There is no requirement to memorize any ritual, but members can choose to participate as they wish.

Meet & Greet

You will be contacted by a small committee from the Lodge who will ascertain your qualifications and answer any questions you or your family may have regarding Freemasonry.
