Meet the 2025 Officers
Thomas Hearn
Worshipful Master
The Worshipful Master is leader of the Lodge. “Worshipful” was a term used in the early 1700s in England in a way that is essentially interchangeable with “honorable” and would sometimes be used to address Lords and Judges. The Master of a Lodge is bound by his commitment, made at his installation, to uphold the constitutions of his Lodge and Grand Lodge. This is an elected office.
Randy Lutton
Senior Warden
Essentially, he is second in the Lodge and will always sit directly opposite of the Worshipful Master and oversees the Craft. If the Worshipful Master is ever absent, it is his job to step up and become acting Worshipful Master. This is an elected office.
Daniel Croll
Junior Warden
In the case of the absence of the Worshipful Master, and the Senior Warden becomes acting Worshipful Master, the Junior Warden then becomes acting Senior Warden. Also the Junior Warden is charged with overseeing fellowship of the Lodge, make sure that fun is had, while also making sure that things don’t get out of hand. This is an elected office.
Mark Costello
Secretary
This is an elected position because it is vital to the functioning of the Lodge. The Secretary records the minutes of every meeting, submits them along with other reports to Grand Lodge, and manages communication with other Lodges. This is an elected office.

Austin Harris
Senior Steward
The Senior Steward assists the Junior Warden, who oversees fellowship, which includes meals or other activities the Lodge is involved in. This is an appointed position.
Larry Page
Junior Steward
Keeping everyone in line for fellowship is a big job, and should not be left to just one person. The Junior Steward also assists in facilitating fellowship. This is an appointed position.
Adam Sills

Lodge Officers:
Once raised to the degree of a Master Mason, a member can serve as an officer of the Lodge. Lodge officers are broken down into elected officers and appointed officers.
Elected Officers:
It is expected that the Junior Warden succeed the Senior Warden after his term is done, and the Senior Warden succeed the Worshipful Master after his term is done. For this reason the election of the Senior Warden and Worshipful Master is often a formality.
Appointed Officers:
The appointed officers, assist the elected officers, and in the ceremonies of the Lodge. While their roles are primarily ceremonial, it is also expected that they assist in the management, day-to-day operations of the Lodge, and perform roles outside of the Lodge meetings themselves.
