Outdoor Degree Raises Four Brothers 

Jan 2016:
​
MOLASSES JUNCTION, FL—Forty-seven hard-core Masons gathered at the Bozard farm in Molasses Junction west of St. Augustine on Saturday, January 23, for a Master Mason Degree.  Four intrepid Fellow Crafts travelled a cold and blustery road to their Degree.  Labor commenced at 4:00 p.m. with the temperature hovering at 37 degrees and wind gusts of 25 mph.  After an outstanding meal of fried chicken, the Second Half was conducted under a cloudless sky and a full moon
with temperatures around 30 but no wind and concluding about 8:30 p.m.

The Third Annual Fred H. Bozard Jr. & Fred H. Bozard III Memorial Degree was performed at the outdoor Lodge located near Fred H. (Bo) Bozard IV's home in St. Johns County.  Worshipful Master James (Rick) Bailey welcomed all the Brothers to the event and presided over both sections. The lecture was delivered by R.W. Troy Usina, PDDGM.

The four Brothers Raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason were Thomas John Torretta, Erik Ander Spong, Samuel Peter Turner, and Joshua Michael Underwood of Ashlar Lodge No. 98 F. & A. M.

The ritual work performed by the degree team was outstanding and, coupled with the dedication of the Brothers who attended demonstrates our respect for our Craft and our commitment to Freemasonry. These four new Master Masons will never forget their Degree, that is assured--nor will any of the hard-core Masons who were there.
