Mobile Masons - Wiradjuri Country Hospitality

Wiradjuri Country Hospitality
A Welcome to Wiradjuri Country was recently extended to Mobile Masons who had travelled to Condobolin for their annual rally.
The headquarters of the Wiradjuri Condobolin Corporation was built for the express purpose of promoting and understanding Wiradjuri Culture. It’s a place where new ways and old have been skilfully blended; we saw computers and electronic whiteboards mingled with elaborate indigenous murals and carvings. The Centre displays some exceptional furniture, stained glass panels and murals. The visit was enjoyable and enlightening and included a lesson in language and culture.
Mobile Masons who had assembled at Condobolin Riverside Caravan Park for a full agenda of social and sporting activities were treated to some exceptional country hospitality by the members of Lodge Condobolin 185.
W Bro Robin Sanderson and WM W Bro Brett Farrah organised a field trip showcasing many of the agricultural activities in the Condobolin area and W Bro Andrew Earney and his wife Anne hosted a picnic lunch at their Bedgerabong property on the banks of the Lachlan River. The Condobolin Museum, the CWA and local media, all welcomed us in a most generous manner.

Membership is open to those who own or have access to caravans, pop-tops, camper trailers, campervans, motor homes, or choose to hire on-site facilities.
The group aims to promote and develop a recreational interest amongst masonic brethren and their families, to provide social activities for members, to aid charitable organisations as decided by the group and to cooperate with similar groups in the interest of members.
The next event on our calendar is a seven-day combined gathering with the Queensland Masonic Touring Club in May this year. The venue is Tenterfield Lodge Caravan Park in Tenterfield with the opportunity afterwards to move to Glen Innes for the annual Celtic Festival.
