Can't be there. I am for sure coming to the crawfish boil though.

I am sure he is a deserving Brother

Question, what is the Golden Trowell Award?

 

[Scotty32]

It is the highest award and honor a lodge can bestow upon one of its members.

The Golden Trowel Award

How it began

 

[hicks9482]

Brother Rodriguez,
The golden Trowell Award is the highest award possible in Masonry. It is awarded to someone who lives the "Masonic Lifestyle". ( In other words, this brother practices what he preaches.)
Brother Yost is a mason's mason.

 

[Ben Rodriguez]

Very nice, that sounds like a great award!

 

[Blake Bowden]

From what I gather, it's only for Past Masters?

 

[RJS]

I don't think that is a requirement.

One brother in my lodge received one two years ago, and another will be receiving one this coming Tuesday. Neither is a PM.
