When:  17 March 2001
6:30pm - Dinner
7:30pm - Presentation

Where:  Evanston Masonic Temple - 1453 Maple Ave - Evanston, Ill 60201


On September 7, 1929, Norman B. Hickox, Master of Events Lodge No. 524, Illinois, formally presented a beautiful silver cup to the lodge, after raising his son as a Master Mason. The Cup of Brotherly Love, as it came to be known, was to be sent on a journey around the world, traveling always from West to East by land sea or air, and always in the custody of a Master Mason. The cup visited more than 150 host lodges as it circled the globe. On May 24, 1958, a homecoming celebration was held at Evans Lodge to commemorate the return of the cup to the lodge.

$10.00 donation will cover dinner and proceeds will go to Evans Lodge’s Cup Program. 

Please RSVP by emailing me.  RSVPs are needed so that we know how much food to bring for the dinner.  

Future Presentations:

16 April:  Ashville N. C.  The Lodge in Ashville is putting on a Grand event inviting Lodges from all over the State of North Carolina, including their Grand Lodge.  If you are interested in attending, please contact me and I will but you in touch with their Worshipful Master.
