I see that the Optima Masonic Lodge will be hosting their annual Installation meeting, with brethren arriving from Windhoek, Rosh Pinah , SPringbok and Cape Town this weekend.....

Some institutions just refuse to fade into the sands.....

Pictures from the Optima Installation this weekend.
In attendance were Masons from Windhoek, Springbok and Cape Town.
John Darné went into the chair in the Royal Arch and Eddie Duncan went into the chair in the Craft Lodge.
A banquet was held on Saturday evening at Eloolo's. This was attended by both Masons and their guests.

John,
When I look at the photos I took with my Dad at similar events there is a marked difference in the number of attendees.

A dying breed that has almost outlived their time in Omund!  End of an era.....

Don't think the MOTHS are too far behind!
