Dartmouth Freemasons give £500 to the Dart Trekkers

Dart Freemasons Lodge have recently presented a cheque for £500 to the Dart Trekkers, a recently formed organisation in Dartmouth. It was established some 4 years ago by Terri Walker when, due to funding problems the local academy decided not to send a team to the Ten Tors Race on Dartmoor.

 The group meet at Townstal Community Hall and are instructed in survival techniques including map reading, these are practiced regularly by visits to Dartmoor. Chris Tucker, the Worshipful Master of Dart Lodge said,” this is the type of group that we like to support, it creates in young people a determination and a purpose in life”

The photograph shows the Chris Tucker presenting the cheque to Terri Walker, in attendance is the Charity Steward, Richard Smith and some of the young people who are members of Dart Trekkers, Terri said,” we are so pleased that the Freemasons of Dartmouth are able support us in our venture”.
