Freemasons are men, age 19 and over, of good character who strive to improve themselves and make the world a better place and have a belief in a Supreme Being. If an individual is interested in becoming a member, he can begin by contacting this Lodge or speaking to a Freemason. Application for membership is open to men who:
- Have been an Ohio resident for at least six months
- Are at least 19 years old
- Have a belief in a Supreme Being
- Live a good moral and social life
- Do not advocate the overthrow of the government
- Can read and write English
- Are recommended by two members of the Lodge they wish to join. (If you do not know two members of a Lodge, the secretary of the Lodge to which you are applying can arrange a meeting with two members of the Lodge for you.)
The Masonic term for a membership application is a "petition." To inquire about becoming a Freemason, please visit the Grand Lodge of Ohio.
