 Area 4 Light Blues Social.
This will take place at the Jolly Tap in Barnsley on the 7th May meeting at 1pm. There are a number of hostelries as well as places to eat. All brethren and prospective brethren are welcome. The Jolly Tap is less than 100 yds from Barnsley Station in the Victorian Arcade.  The LLB social was attended by over 20 brethren and some partners, alongside the chairman of the Adair club from Somerset! A large contingent of area 4 Rough Ashlars from Sheffield making up the numbers!
As our private area was double booked, we went to plan B, utilising the area of the Pack Horse known as the "naughty corner". After welcoming our visitors, Bro. Matt Nemyria announced that he was stepping aside as LLB chairman and Bro.Dean Leach would be taking on the role from the 1st of April. The LLB members passed on their sincere gratitude to Bro. Matt, and to all of the previous committee members who had decided to stand down, including Bro. Manni Singh, and founder Matthew Wharton.  On this International Women’s Day, we would like to express our gratitude to all of the wonderful women in our lives and around the world.
We would also like to extend fraternal greetings to our Brethren in the Order of Women’s Freemasonry, and the Honourable Fraternity of Ancient Freemasons! If you’re interested in joining, you can find out more about both orders at owf.org.uk and hfaf.org #IWD2022  Join us for a get together and drinks upstairs at the Packhorse, Briggate in Leeds, for our Bi-Monthly Social!
Room hired from 12:00 -1 6:00, with a small pub crawl afterward for those wishing to stay out. Free to attend. Charitable donation towards a chosen charity of the day is recommended, but not mandatory. We look forward to seeing you there!

Despite a flash covering of snow, the fish and chip lunch was still successfully received, with gratitude to Corona Chapter for covering the costs and thanks to the brethren on hand with 4x4’s to assist in the food collection! We look forward to holding more of these days in the future, where any brother, irrespective of rank, can practice delivering a lecture to peers.  The Leeds Light Blues Club are hosting a free day of a series of short peer-to-peer lectures, suitable for both Masons and prospective candidates.
