Traditionally, upon completion of Masonic labors, a repast was attended and enjoyed by all the Members, as the Lodge was said to be at refreshment. In the early nineteenth century, a much more formal approach to refreshment was adopted by French Freemasons. It was termed a Loge de Table, or Table Lodge. The Table Lodge was opened in the Entered Apprentice degree for the purpose of allowing Brothers who had received the first degree to be present for the occasion. A similar practice was adopted by our Lodge 13 years ago by Worshipful Walter Schoepf, Past Master 2005. Since then, this tradition has continued and the annual Hillsborough No. 25 Table Lodge has become an event that Brothers from around the State look forward to each year.
In previous Table Lodges, we enjoyed fellowship and great food with over 130 Brothers in attendance. Below is an example of our multiple course meal:
1st Course: Shaved Prosciutto & Melon Appetizer
2nd Course: Chilled Cucumber Soup
3rd Course: Maryland Crab Cake w/Creole Marmalade
4th Course: Garden Salad w/Balsamic Dressing
5th Course: Fresh Sorbet w/Mint
6th Course: Chicken Champaign w/Wild Mushrooms and Beef Medallions w/Spatzle and Vegetable Medley
7th Course: Strudel A-la-Mode with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Dinner Rolls w/Butter, Iced Tea, Coffee, Water, and of course the Cannon Toasts.
The upcoming 15th Annual Table Lodge will be no exception! The menu may change, but the fellowship and spirit of the event will only get better! Purchase your ticket online at the Hillsborough Lodge Webstore, or contact the Lodge for additional information and help. We look forward to your attendance!
Next Table Lodge will be Tuesday, September 1, 2015, 6:30pm sharp.
Reservation Tickets are required, and seating is limited.
