“Admit Him if Properly Clothed: The Evolution of the Masonic Apron in America 1740 to Present.” – W:. Patrick Craddock - September 25th

Amazing falls short to describe the caliber of this program. For the last three years Harmonie Lodge has hosted its Distinguished Speaker Series. This program was a dream of W:. Nathan Shoff, W:. Fredrick Clark II and myself. We wanted to be able to bring true Masonic scholars to the District to share their light. This year is no different as we had the distinct honor of hosting Worshipful Patrick Craddock of the Craftsman's Apron. He is one of the foremost experts on the Masonic Apron and its development and use in the United States and abroad. If you missed it I am so sorry Brother. This was something you really should have come an seen. 

Brother Craddock is a wonderful Man and Mason and an amazing public speaker. We filled the festive board of the Lodge with well over 30 Brothers from all over Western New York and as far as Olean. The program was very well received and spurred immediate conversations between the Brothers as to the state of our regalia. 

I have said the past the I want my Past Masters Apron to be from the Craftsman's Apron. After meeting with Brother Craddock and learning about his methods I know I found the right Brother for the job. Take a look at his wonderful website - http://www.craftsmansapron.com
