The Club was founded in 1875 by business people, professionals and graziers as a traditional “Gentlemen’s Club. However, like the NSW Masonic Club, its membership of 400 now consists of both men and women. The Club sits in a delightful well- established building in the centre of Hamilton, a thriving community of 10,000 people 270km west of Melbourne. Members of the Masonic Club who may wish to sample the delights of Hamilton and the Hamilton Club should contact our Club office to arrange an introduction. Watch out for a feature on The Hamilton Club in our next issue of Club Chat. THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN CLUB It is with regret that we advise that the West Australian Club, a prominent Perth Club with which the NSW Masonic Club had a reciprocal arrangement spanning many years, has now closed. This reciprocal arrangement provided a significant service for our Members when visiting the west, and our Club administration is now in the process of seeking and establishing a similar arrangement with another Perth-based Club. NEW RECIPROCAL CLUBS COMING IN 2019
