Our Story
Longview Lodge #263 was chartered in 1924 and has been a cornerstone of the Longview community ever since. We are a lodge of Free & Accepted Masons under the Grand Lodge of Washington, dedicated to the timeless Masonic principles of brotherly love, relief, and truth.
Our membership is made up of men from all walks of life who share a commitment to personal growth, community service, and supporting one another. We have been part of the Longview community for generations. About 10 to 15 years ago we moved into our current home at the Longview Masonic Center on 7th Avenue, where we continue to host Lodge events, community programs, and fraternal fellowship.
Serving Our Community
Bikes 4 Books
Each year we donate bikes to 2nd and 3rd graders across all eight Longview elementary schools, using them as an incentive for students to meet their reading goals. In 2026 we are donating 32 bikes.
CAP Food Distribution
Lodge volunteers assist with the Community Action Program food distribution every third Tuesday of the month, helping ensure families in our area have access to food.
School Supply Drive
This year we are launching our first school supply drive, collecting supplies for local students in need. Drop-offs are welcome at the Longview Masonic Center through September 1.
Coffee & Donuts
Every Saturday at noon, the Lodge opens its doors to the public for coffee and donuts. No agenda — just neighbors getting to know each other. Everyone is welcome.
Game Night & Potluck
A monthly evening of food and fellowship open to members and their families. The day varies each month — typically a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday at 5:30 PM.
