At the end of January 2011 we captured the Travelling Mallet along with the pot of money which the brethren agreed to round up to £100.00.
Our RWM Bro. Phil decided that it should go to “Crossroads” based at the Biggart Hospital, a charity which the lodge has supported in the past.
Phil said “This organisation brings respite to carers in our community and is well worthy of our support”.

£500.00 to Sutherland House
Yet another presentation by 1060, this time to Sutherland House. The money was raised by way of our annual sponsored walk from Troon Masonic Lodge to 1060 in Prestwick. Chairman Dougie McEwan said "Sutherland House has been part of the fabric of the local community for over 50 years and it can only remain so with the help of people and organisations such as the Prestwick Masonic Lodge who recognise the part that Sutherland House plays in the community. The charity, which principally provides social activities for Adults with Learning Difficulties, is run by its members, most of whom live locally in the Ayr ,Prestwick and Troon areas".
Past Master John Trousdale (one of the founders of this walk), added "A great credit is deserved by the members of St Cuthbert Golf Club who have generously contributed to this fund raising event since it started".
The Master of Lodge Prestwick Archie Patrick said "I am very proud of the members who take part in this event and I would like to thank all of our friends who sponsor them".

Station 15 Ayr hospital receives £1060.00
On Saturday 22nd of August Lodge Prestwick 1060 were the guests for the annual charity bowling match between themselves and Prestwick Bowling Club. The venue was the bowling club at Midton Road in Prestwick. The event was as ever very well supported by both experienced bowlers and total beginners who came together to raise money for charity.
The winning team on the day were the members of Lodge Prestwick 1060. The sum raised was enhanced by the Provincial Grand Lodge of Ayrshire tournament held on the Sunday. The money from both events was further added to by Jean Shearer of Prestwick Bowling Club which brought the total raised to around £1000. The Lodge recognised this excellent sum of money should be rounded off to a more manageable number, ie £1060.
Paul Noble and Alison Pyper from Station 15 the Oncology Department of Ayr Hospital received a cheque for £1060.00 from RWM Robert, Bowling Club Lady President Anne McAtear, Jean Shearer and Gents President Jimmy Gibson.
