Returning to an Even Keel

Installation Convocation Tuesday 7th December

December 8, 2021

 

Having conducted the 2020 delayed Installation on the 7th of September,and finally managed to Install E. Comp. David Crump into the Chair as MEZ, therequirement followed to Elect the Principals for the forthcoming year. And soit came to pass that on Tuesday 7th December the Chapter held it's 2021Installation Convocation and Proclaimed all 3 Principals to remain in Office and all the Officers were re-appointed. This finally getting the Chapter back onto an even keel after the stormy weathers of the past two years. 

The Address to the Robes was conducted and the Provincial team gave their usual faultless performance in presenting their addresses. 

On completion of the work in the Chapter Room the Companions retired to the Mess Deck to collect their Rum Ration and then enjoy an excellent meal,during which, as is standard practice, the order was given to "Darken Ship", the Candle of Remembrance was lit, and the Roll Call was made of all those Companions who had "Crossed the Bar" since the Consecrationof the Chapter in December 2005. 

The Alms collection raised £87 + Gift Aid and was donated to the Prov. RA. Charity Fund.
