The David Garrick Lodge 4243 enjoyed a splendid performance at the raising of Bro Steven Sanders-Crook, which was followed by a presentation from members of Nore Lodge 3610 (Essex) to W Bro Michael Kemp.

Steven is a Lewis, his father Ray, a former Yeomen Warder (or Beefeater) at the Tower of London, having been Master of the Lodge, which meets at Stratford-upon-Avon, in 2007.

Michael joined the Lodge and was Master in 1991, but received his 50 year Certificate at his mother Lodge in Essex from whence a delegation presented him with gifts, greetings and a Certificate of Honorary Membership.
