Fellowship Starts Around the Table
Some of the best conversations at King Lodge happen around a table. Our public breakfasts and community meals bring Brothers and neighbors together over biscuits, smoked meats, chili and pie. No invitation required, just an appetite and a little time.
Community breakfast: the first Saturday of every month, 8 to 10 AM. $12 buffet, open to everyone.
Our popular community breakfast is temporarily on hold while we renovate our kitchen and dining facilities. We look forward to welcoming everyone back. Watch our events calendar for the official reopening date.
More Than a Meeting
Freemasonry isn’t only what happens during a Lodge meeting. It’s friendships built over breakfast, Brothers working side by side, families gathering for a picnic, visiting other Lodges, learning together and simply showing up for one another.
Brotherhood
Friendships that cross generations.
Fellowship
Breakfasts, dinners, picnics, trips and time spent together.
Masonic Education
Learning, mentorship and passing our traditions from one generation to the next.
A Place to Belong
Men from different backgrounds brought together by shared principles.
