On March 8th, the two Masonic Lodges in Somerville – King Solomon’s Lodge A.F. & A.M. and Somerville Lodge, A.F. & A.M. – had an Open House all day to invite members of the community in to view their building at 125 Highland Avenue, learn about the history of their lodge and answer questions for those looking to join the fraternity. The Grand Lodge of Masons in Massachusetts is celebrating its 275th year and King Solomon’s Lodge is celebrating its 225th year in 2008. Many members of the community and their families belong to one or both of these two lodges and if you would like any additional information, please call the Master of King Solomon’s Lodge – James Norton at 617-718-2110.
