History

Long Beach Lodge No. 327 F&AM originally begun in 1896 and occupied a space in a bank building on Pine Avenue in downtown Long Beach when the City of Long Beach was a small town by the beach. Since then, several thousand good men have come through its doors and incorporated the teachings of Freemasonry into their lives, thus bettering themselves and our society.
Just over 60 years ago the Lodge moved into its current location on Locust Ave. Built by men of vision, our current Masonic Facility has served numerous Lodges, and other Masonic affiliated groups with beauty and distinction.
Today, Long Beach Lodge has a membership just under three hundred and fifty. It meets the first Thursday evening of the month for its Stated Meeting and the subsequent Thursdays evenings are for degrees and social functions.
In addition to being part of an ancient fraternity as a brotherhood, we participate in a variety of community support efforts throughout the year. Our members are proud of their fraternity and the legacy of Freemasonry.

A Little About Us

Long Beach Lodge began when Long Beach was just a little city near the beach on a floor above a bank in 1896.

February message from the Master

Brethren,

I am truly looking forward to this Masonic year with all of you. I am honored and humbled to address you as your Worshipful Master. My Brothers, thank you for entrusting me with this sacred responsibility. Together, we travel on this journey that continues the noble traditions of our Craft, strengthens the bonds of our Brotherhood, and furthers the principles of Faith, Hope, and Charity.

This year, our focus will be on growth—not just in numbers but, more importantly, in the depth of our understanding and practice of Freemasonry. Ever to walk and act my brothers. Let us re-engage in fellowship within our Lodge. I look forward to helping organize programs and events designed to engage, educate, and uplift—from meaningful ritual work and enlightening lectures through our brothers in the craft.

Let us not forget the importance of mentorship. As stewards of the Craft, it is our duty to guide and nurture the newer members of our Lodge, helping them to grow into knowledgeable and dedicated Masons.

In all that we do, let us remember the square and compasses, which remind us to square our actions and keep our desires within due bounds.
As we begin this new chapter, I am enthusiastic to pick up my tools alongside you to help make Long Beach Lodge #327 a memorable and meaningful year.

Thank you, my Brothers, for your support, your dedication, and commitment.
Fraternally yours,
Harry Bugarin
Worshipful Master LB327

 

February message from the Senior Warden

 

A message from your Senior Warden, Craig Miller…

Happy New Year Brethren, I am honored and humbled to address you as your Senior Warden for this year 2025. I would first like to take this opportunity to congratulate all officers for committing to this lodge for the 2025 Masonic year. Your contributions and dedication are recognized and greatly appreciated. 

Let’s dig right into the work of this year. We have two men who we have voted to receive the degrees of masonry in our lodge and are looking forward to delivering their first Degree as soon as possible. We also have two brothers who have returned their First Degree Proficiency and are ready to be passed to the Degree of Fellow Craft. This being said we have some work ahead of us to perform these degrees and need the help of every brother on the roster to participate in the degree, attend the degrees, and show support to these young men working their way through this progressive science. If you have not been to lodge in a while this is a great opportunity to brush up on the important meanings behind our ritual, be watching practice, filling in a chair, participating in the degrees, or even just showing up to see the degrees performed. As always Stated meetings and dinners are the first Thursday of every month, there will be quite a few practices scheduled to help facilitate the degrees we will need to put on for these brothers. Please watch for our scheduled practices.

We look forward to seeing you at the lodge.

 Sincerely,
 Craig Miller
