Freemasons Ball cancelled

19th March 2025

FREEMASONS NSW & ACT

The Ball is Off!

From Lodge St Andrews in conjunction with the Manilla CWA, Manilla ASL Sub Branch and Manilla Central School.

Unfortunately, we have to announce that the ANZAC Debutante Ball that was planned for the 3rd of May this year has been cancelled due to a lack of enrolments.

We have to accept that the social values of the younger generation have changed. Young people do still like to dress up and go out to fine dining and dancing, but not to the same strict protocols as practiced in the past.

If and when a Ball is planned in the future, we need to learn from this experience and be sure to involve more young people in the planning.

Lodge St Andrews remains dedicated to supporting and promoting the community of Manilla and surrounding district with sponsorship to sporting and charitable groups.
