Indiana Freemasons Conclude 158th Council of Deliberation French Lick, IN

French Lick, Indiana - June 13 - June 15, 2025
Freemasons from across Indiana gathered in French Lick for the 158th Council of Deliberation. Brothers representing all six valleys converged on the scenic southern Indiana town for a two-day event filled with both camaraderie and constructive work.
The weekend began with a golf outing, followed by popular wine and bourbon tasting sessions, where many attendees picked up "souvenirs". The hospitality room was a lively hub, fostering a great atmosphere among the participants.
The following day featured a well-attended General Session. Representatives from each valley presented activity reports, and notable guests, including Grand Master MWM Randal Seipel, were present. The keynote address was delivered by Howard Kellman, Indianapolis Indians broadcaster, who offered insights on leadership through the lens of sports.

Breakout Sessions and Fellowship
Following the main session, several breakout discussions were held. These sessions focused on important issues within the Rite and provided a platform for exchanging ideas for future projects, proving to be very informative. Concurrently, the ladies enjoyed a luncheon, where they engaged in a fun "murder mystery" activity.
The event culminated in the 158th Council of Deliberation Banquet, where MSA awards were presented to deserving brothers from all six valleys. The festivities continued late into Saturday night.
