The new Master then proceeded to invest his Officers.
Many congratulations to W.Bro Gavin in attaining the Chair of King Solomon for the second time in the South Kent Lodge, although he has been W.M. a number of times before in previous Lodges.
It was also good to see some Brethren progressing though the offices, whilst some of our newer members took office for the first time.
We wish them well for the forthcoming year, as we do the new Master.
There followed a Festive Board which was enjoyed by all.
W. Bro. Gavin can look forward to a promising and enjoyable year ahead, ably supported by his officers and Lodge members.
