I have been trying to contact some of the local lodges, Watertown Lodge #49 and Bethany Lodge #821 but to no avail. I would very much like to sit down with someone and discuss the application process with them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Rick

If you are looking for the Grand Orient then you should visit http://www.grandorientusa.org/ and use the contact there. | |

I have been to the site and found the lodge contacts for those particular lodges in New York, and I have tried both email and calling with the information that was provided. However, the emails appear to go either unanswered or the email address it's being forwarded to does not exist anymore. The Watertown Lodge #49 has a phone number and I've tried calling many times with no result. Every time I email Bethany Lodge #829 and Watertown #49 it appears the email address is no longer in use. From looking at the NY lodge site it seems that the contact info for both of those lodges has not been updated for about 2 years. Any assistance would be most helpful. Thank you for your fast response.
Best regards,
Rick

I have tried, and they won't give me any contact information. My uncle is a Mason overseas and I've been told to keep on trying, however it is rather difficult when the Watertown lodge has relocated and the contact information is wrong. Thank you for your responses though. | |

raznarbe Private Message me your contact info (phone preferably) and I'll see what I can do. | |
