The 2008/9 Masonic year started in September 2008, with the installation of Richard Lynch-White as Master of the lodge.
 In February, the Master accompanied by his SW attended a presentation of grants from the “Sussex for Sussex” Masonic Charity, on this particular evening a total of £136000 was given out of which £15000 was given to The Mariners tea rooms in Rye. This restaurant provides work experience and a home for 10 adults with varying degrees of mental handicap.
£1500 was given to Coastway Hospital Radio (based at the Sussex County in Brighton) sponsored by the SW. It was a pleasure that these gifts were handed out by the Provincial Grand Master Ken Thomas.

 The Old Brightonians have been invited to take part in an international tournament at La Manga this June after being spotted at the Stockholm tournament in 2008.
The Association invites its members to become involved in any way they can; we see this as a terrific opportunity for a weekend break, as well as a good value sponsorhip opportunity for any OBs' business willing to contribute to the trip's costs.

 It’s been a while since our last London Drinks – almost 2 years, in fact. For these first Drinks of 2010 we had returned to a favourite old haunt of the Association’s London members; The International Bar on St. Martin’s Lane. Unfortunately it appears that it may also be our last time here; the place is to close within a month – a piece of information made privy to Jack Bremer (BCJS 1990-94) before some of the bar staff (much to his and one unfortunate girl’s great embarrassment / shock).
