We would love to meet you and see if you are a good fit for our Lodge and we are a good fit for you. Different Lodges, because they are made up of people, have different cultures. Some Lodges are more ethnic and may have more members of a particular political or religious leaning even. While we don’t discuss religion or politics, finding a group you connect with is important to you feeling comfortable and becoming an active member.
The process for becoming a Freemason begins by you asking how to become a Mason. In our Lodge, we encourage men to come to a Stated Meeting Dinner on the first Wednesday of the month at 6:30PM. The Lodge is located at 1920 18th St Bakersfield, CA.
