The following list records the twenty-seven Brethren who joined Lodge St Olaf during the decade of the 2000s, comprising twenty-six initiates and one affiliate. As the Lodge entered the early years of the twenty-first century, it continued to welcome new members who were drawn to the enduring principles and fellowship of Freemasonry.

Those initiated during this period began their Masonic journey within Lodge St Olaf, while the single affiliate further strengthened the Lodge through his prior experience in another lodge and his decision to unite with the Brethren of St Olaf. Together they contributed to maintaining the Lodge’s traditions and sustaining its active presence within the community.

The names that follow therefore represent the Brethren who joined the Lodge during the first decade of the new millennium, continuing the long and unbroken line of membership that has shaped the history and character of Lodge St Olaf.

Below are the names of the 27 New members from 2000 to 2009.
