On Saturday, 25th of June 2011, the landmark ceremony of the Consecration, Constitution and Installation of The City of Wollongong Lodge N°1049 within “The City of Wollongong Masonic Fraternity”, was undertaken.
This is the first “Masonic Fraternity” established under the 2005 Concordat between the United Grand Lodge of New South Wales & Australian Capital Territory, and the United Supreme Grand Chapter of Mark and Royal Arch Masons of New South Wales and The Australian Capital Territory. The new Craft Lodge was sponsored by The City of Wollongong Mark and Royal Arch Chapter N°79.
It is the first time in any Australasian jurisdiction, and possibly the World, that a new Lodge has been sponsored by a Royal Arch Chapter as part of a single Masonic Body known as a ‘Masonic Fraternity’. The new Lodge will also be the first ‘Dining Lodge’ in the Illawarra area to be based on the European experience.
