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.

November message from the Master

Brethren,

I wish you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Another year is almost behind us and as we face another Masonic year, we are still going to have the same situation of not having a complete line up of officers.

In addition to your presence in the lodge’s activities and events, I would like to ask your participation as we need Stewards next year.

May you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Fraternally,
Dave Romero
Your Brother

November message from the Senior Warden

Brethren,

Our triple-header 2^nd degree went very well this month. Congratulations to Brother Raymond Ramos, Brother Ron Noble and Brother Ruben Datu. For those of you that made it, I thank you.

Pac Rim had a fantastic 100^th year anniversary celebration in October. They know how to throw a party. The Grand Lodge officers were in attendance and made a special Grand Lodge opening. It was fun to see and be a part of.

Worshipful Greg Peterson’s lodge in San Pedro had a 3^rd degree this month. I was invited to participate, and it was very well done. If you’ve never been to L.A. Harbor Lodge, it is quite the venue. The view looking over the LB Harbor is spectacular. It’s a must see if you get an opportunity to travel for one of their Stated Meetings, Degree conferrals, or the social events.

We’re wrapping up the end of the year. Grand Lodge Communication is on the books. I’m sure it’ll be a well-attended event. If you’ve never been, it’s something to see and something you should try to see at least once in your lifetime.

I hope to see you all at lodge again, and soon.

Fraternally,
Dean West
Senior Warden

October message from the Junior Warden

Brethren,

Looking forward to a great October this year. We have three 2nd degree conferrals scheduled for 10/19/2023. Brother Raymond Ramos, Brother Ron Noble and Brother Ruben Datu (spelling) will all receive their 2nd degree. Please join us to help our brothers pass to the next degree and celebrate with us!

We weren’t able to have our fellowship day this past month, however, I am hoping we will be able to schedule a fellowship day for our brothers, friends and family alike. Come and hang out and let’s have a great time. Please check out website for further details.

As always, our stated meeting dinner happens on the first Thursday of the month. This month we will have our stated meeting dinner on 10/5/2023 at 7pm. We do ask for a $10 donation. The menu for this month will be steak, sides and salad.

Also looking forward to the California Grand Lodge Communication this year. If you have not been able to attend, make sure to register and book your flight and hotel. it’s a great way to meet our Masonic brethren in one place

“Ever to Walk and Act”.

Fraternally,

Harry Bugarin

Junior Warden
