MASONIC RESOURCE CENTRE

The MRC is open Tuesdays 10 am--1 pm
​and most Wednesdays 9:30 to noon.

It's Short Talk Time again

Each of us is charged to make daily advancements in Masonic knowledge. Each of us develops a slightly different interpretation of the story presented. Why not go the extra step, put your new knowledge on paper and enter the Short Talk Competition?
The Short Talk Competition takes its inspiration from the Short Talk Bulletins from the Masonic Service Association. Those papers are approximately 2,000 words in length.
The Competition is open to all Manitoba Masons and the subject should be Masonic in nature-- that gives a lot of room for interpretation.
 
Submissions should be no more that 5 pages in length, typed and double spaced. Don’t forget to add a bibliography if you quote from a source.  
On a separate cover sheet indicate your name, address, phone number and Lodge.
Printed entries should be submitted to
Short Talk Competition
c/o Grand Secretary’s Office
420 Corydon Ave.
Winnipeg, MB R3L 0N8
 
Email submissions [in the same style as mentioned above] can be in Word / Word Perfect / pdf format, sent to mrc@grandlodge.mb.ca
 
DEADLINE: April 30th.
 
Judging is based on topic, content, style and presentation. First prize is a $75 gift certificate from the Grand Lodge ‘store’ with a second prize of $50 presented if there are more than 5 entries received. The winner(s) will be announced at the Grand Lodge Communication in June where they may be asked to present their paper(s), thus making it a true Short Talk.
