FEEL GOOD FRIDAY !
Members of Cymbeline Lodge 9004 enjoyed a lively and successful evening on Saturday 7th March 2026, when the Lodge hosted a fun Quiz Night at Stewart Hall.
The event was organised in support of the Worshipful Master’s charities for the year and proved to be a tremendous success, with the hall filled to capacity with enthusiastic and competitive quiz teams eager to test their knowledge.
Ten teams took part in the evening’s contest, representing a wonderful cross-section of the local community. Among those competing were teams from the local school, members of the Stewart Hall Committee, representatives from Scouting groups in the area, and supporters of the Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity. They were joined by teams made up of Brethren and their families from Cymbeline Lodge, as well as Brethren from neighbouring Lodges who came along to support the event.
The evening was made even more enjoyable with a traditional fish and chip supper, followed by a well-supported raffle which added to the friendly atmosphere and fundraising efforts of the night. Throughout the evening the hall was filled with laughter, lively debate and the occasional good-natured disagreement over the quiz answers
The evening, together with some donations from members unable to attend, resulted in £901 being raised for “Domestic Abuse Survivors” and “Stoke Mandeville Hospital Radio”, the charities being supported by our current Master W.Bro. Chris Barton.
A particularly special moment during the evening came when the Lodge had the pleasure of presenting a cheque to the Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity. The sum of £1,500, raised during the year of the previous Worshipful Master was presented in support of the hospice’s invaluable work caring for patients and supporting families across Buckinghamshire.
Events such as the Quiz Night demonstrate Cymbeline Lodge’s commitment not only to fundraising, but also to strengthening links with the local community. The Lodge was delighted to see such strong support from local organisations and friends, and the evening proved to be a memorable and enjoyable occasion for all who attended.
A special thank you must be given to W.Bro Peter Gehnich and his wife, Sue, for organising and running the event and to everyone who assisted on the night.
