Our Concept
In addition to dignity, excellence, and fellowship, The European Concept is known for its dedication to a number of primary tenets
Initiatic Experience
The initiatic experience will have a sense of awe to our ceremonies
The Festive Board
The Lodge enjoys the fellowship of the Festive Board at a local restaurant following all regular and emergent meetings of the Lodge
Elegance of Dress
In the style of European Lodges, members are expected to dress properly in tuxedo, as well as a Lodge Apron and white gloves
Enlightening Education
Masonically-advanced educational presentations at every meeting from members or visitors
Lasting Friendship
