Making true friends,
improving ourselves, having an impact
Masonry is the world’s first and largest fraternal organization. It is guided by the enduring belief that each man has a responsibility to make the world a better place. For 300 years, Freemasonry has enhanced and strengthened the character of individual men by providing opportunities for fellowship, charity, and the search for truth – within ourselves and the larger world.
Please join us and spend time with the brothers at San Dimas Lodge. For prospective members, get to know the personality of the lodge as well as spend a relaxing time to chat and snack. We typically meet every Thursday night at 6:30 pm. Come one, come all! We would love to see you there.
DeMolay International is the world’s largest youth leadership organization for young men aged 12 to 21. Its program is designed to provide a safe and moral environment while teaching leadership skills. The organization seeks to build better youth into better men, citizens, husbands, fathers, friends and leaders in the future.
San Dimas Masonic Lodge hosts the George Washington Chapter of DeMolay. Contact us for more information.
San Dimas Lodge No. 428 membership is open to men 18 and older who meet the qualifications and standards of character and intention, and who believe in a Supreme Being. Men of all ethnic and religious backgrounds are welcome.
One of Freemasonry’s customs is not to solicit members – men must seek membership on their own initiative. Anyone is welcome to request information about the fraternity.
If you are interested in applying for membership to our lodge, now is a good time to start. Please contact us to schedule a visit during an event, such as our monthly stated meeting dinners on the 1st Monday of each month at 7 p.m., or request more information.
