The Symbolic
or "Blue Lodge" is the foundation of Freemasonry and is the gateway
into Masonry. Each of these lodges is chartered under The Grand Lodge of Ohio,
F. & A.M.
Visit
the home pages of our Symbolic Lodges to learn more about them.
Symbolic Lodges are empowered to issue petitions for membership, act on
petitions and confer the three Symbolic Degrees, known as the Entered
Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason Degrees. There are over 600 Symbolic
Lodges in the Jurisdiction of Ohio with a total membership of approximately
200,000.
Sojourners
are always welcome to visit when in the area. You are reminded that you must
have a photo ID and current dues card from your home lodge and it must be recognized by The
Grand Lodge of Ohio for you to gain entrance.
