Lodge Thistle No. 127 celebrated its 250th Anniversary in 2021. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our celebrations were rescheduled for 2022. During the period 2021-2023, four of our sister lodges in Ayrshire also celebrated their 250th anniversary. To mark this occasion, the five joined in a special event to celebrate. Read more about these events below.
