A Blast for the Past<\/h3>

History was in the air <\/span>as hundreds of Masons gathered this spring for four gala celebrations recognizing the 175th anniversary of the founding of the Grand Lodge of California. Meeting inside the Scottish Rite temples in San Diego, Pasadena, and Sacramento, and in the auditorium of San Francisco\u2019s California Masonic Memorial Temple, a who\u2019s-who of California Masons, friends, and families saluted the fraternity\u2019s long and distinguished history\u2014with no shortage of toasts, songs, and speeches. Says Steven Yeffa of Pleasanton \u2116 321<\/b>, who chaired the organizing committee, \u201cWhat stuck out for me was the wonderful legacy that\u2019s transpired over last 175 years: the charitable work we\u2019ve done, the number of Masons we\u2019ve initiated\u2014men who\u2019ve wanted to become better versions of themselves. I think it\u2019s just absolutely profound what we\u2019ve accomplished.\u201d One highlight for Yeffa: Meeting the grand secretary of the Grand Lodge of Washington, D.C., one of five Masonic bodies that lent charters to California\u2019s first lodges.<\/span><\/p>
