Who are the Masons?
Masons in Olympia, Tumwater and Lacey congregate at Harmony Lodge #18, the friendliest Lodge in Thurston County, WA. Our Lodge includes a broad cross-section of the community and we welcome men over the age of 18 who want to improve themselves by associating with like-minded peers. Our membership is distributed fairly evenly across age groups and by profession, although because of the proximity to Fort Lewis (JBLM), many of our members are active duty military or veterans.
The Masonic Fraternity is the oldest Fraternity in the world. The Masonic Family includes Masons as well as organizations for their ladies, couples, and youth.
The Masonic Family provides more than $2 million a day to charitable activities such as hospitals, youth scholarship, and those less fortunate than we.

Thanks to you all for attending WB Plue's service
Wow - what a great turn-out and send-off for WB Allen Plue! I think his family is sure that many people were positively affected by Allen over the years. We had about 140 people there, including at least 60 Masons from Lodges all over the area. I also noted MWB Bill Miller and Thurston County Sheriff John Snazza among us, as well. It was a packed house and it was fortunate that we set up chairs in the middle of the Lodge room to accommodate the overflow.
A great thanks to so many of you but especially:
Brian LeBlanc, Jeff Rennaker, WB Ed and Karolyn Woods, WB Kurt and Rachelle Schmid, WB Rod Mason, VWB Paul Cooley, Dave Smarr, Pat Baker, Chris Blume, WB Casper and Kelly LeBlanc and Clint Brown. These folks participated in preparation, set-up, break-down and the service itself.
Olympia #1 was especially well-represented, besides Harmony #18. Thanks, Brothers! I counted 13 Harmony Past Masters there to pay their respects to WB Allen, who was Master in 1990.
