This is the official chapter of The Mason Lodge for the town of Los Gatos. Freemasonry is a worldwide fraternal organization established more than 500 years ago and has approximately six million members. This private club is open to men ages 18 or older. Masons meet regularly for social activities and to discuss charitable projects. The California Masonic Foundation helps raise money for local youth services such as scholarships and free child fingerprinting. The lodge is located downtown across from the civic center. It features a meeting and a banquet hall, both of which are available to rent for weddings or other special events.
