LYNN VALLEY MASONIC HALL

9 years of patient hard work

The idea of Lynn Valley Lodge started long before dispensation was granted.  In fact, records show that it all began on May 20, 1923, when 18 Master Masons gathered to discuss the possibility of establishing a new Masonic Lodge on the North Shore.  In April, 1929, the current building at 1371 Lynn Valley Road was leased and renovated.  The Grand Lodge of British Columbia granted the new Lodge a place for Freemasons to meet in 1932 after the Lodge was purchased for $1100.

Change, Amalgamation, and continued Fraternity

On May 30, 1930, dispensation was finally granted. The first meeting of Lynn Valley Lodge was June 9, 1930.  Of the original 31 members of the new Lynn Valley Lodge, 16 were from Burrard Lodge.  Lynn Valley Lodge was granted its charter June 18, 1931 and Constituted on September 3, 1931. The first Worshipful Master was Worshipful Brother Nicholson and his designated Senior and Junior Wardens were Worshipful Brother Shoemaker and Brother Norton. In 1991, Eastgate Lodge No. 176, amalgamated with Lynn Valley Lodge.

90 years of Fellowship and Community involvement 

As a meeting hall for local Freemasons, there are three separate Lodges that meet here.  Lynn Valley Lodge No. 122, King David Lodge No. 93 and Hollyburn Lodge No. 135.  Freemasons from the North Shore and beyond meet regularly and welcome visiting Freemasons from all over the world in friendship and harmony

Our membership includes men ranging in age from their early 20s to their late 90s. As a fraternity, all three Lodges continue to support the community through charitable acts and contributions. We welcome all enquiries from local men in the community who are interested in learning more about Freemasonry, our history and the importance of this building.
