Cams Campbell was installed as Master of Lodge St Molios No 774 on 14 October 2023 by two past masters of the lodge, Tim Keen and John Corbett, with the assistance of Chris Stirland, PM.
The day was made all the more special by a large deputation from Cams’s mother lodge, Lodge Prestwick 1060, headed by their Master, Ross Main, and including Cams’s brother, Brian, and his nephew, Scott.
The reply to the toast to the visitors was given by a Past Master of Lodge Prestwick, Alex Whannel. Alex was in the chair when Cams and Brian went through their Mark Degree in 1993 and was installed as Master in December by their Papa Porter. He was also Papa Porter’s first candidate during his term as Master. Alex went back to the chair in 2017, and his last candidate during his term was Cams’s nephew, Scott. It made for quite an emotional day!
