SUMMARY:Remembrance Sunday
DESCRIPTION:  \nMembers of the Institution will lay wreaths at various Remembrance events as they represent the Institution at Church and Civic Events. As with other years\, we work closely with the Royal British Legion to mark Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day\, and we as an Institution pay our respects to those who served and sacrificed. \n \nWe remind members to take the opportunity of the National Minutes silence at 11 am on 11 November for their own quiet reflection wherever they are. The Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall traditionally starts a weekend of commemoration with events on Remembrance Sunday at various cenotaphs and churches. \nJoin with us as we mark this time of national remembrance and also look back at other years when we organised events from parades to our own Festival of Remembrance

SUMMARY:King William's Birthday
DESCRIPTION:Almost as soon as the smoke of battle had cleared and the capital of Ireland was back under Williamite control the city began planning one of the biggest celebrations it had ever seen. The Government of the day began planning a birthday party for the King\, as a tribute to their great Deliverer\, as a sign of their loyalty\, to give thanks to God for his help and to show their resolve to win the war that was still raging in the west of Ireland. \nAs an Institution dedicated to the memory of King William III Prince of Orange\, we continue those celebrations of his birthday. Indeed at one time its celebration and the commemoration of his landing in England on 5 November gave rise to a double celebration which for many years was a civic event established by law. Dublin became a centre for these celebrations and the equestrian statue of King William at College Green in front of Trinity College hosted annual parades and celebrations which first began on 4 November 1690\, King Williams’s fortieth birthday. \nDespite the sectarian attacks on this display of loyalty and commemoration of our Glorious Heritage Orangemen across Ireland\, and indeed the world still remembers that great double celebration of 4-5 November. Many lodges hold meetings on that night with some even holding off installations of officers to ensure that it falls on or near that date. Toasts are still made and the event marked at dinners and private gatherings.

SUMMARY:VE Day Tea Party
DESCRIPTION:The spirit of the 1940s will be inspiring an afternoon tea and entertainment at Garryduff to mark VE Day. As part of the ILOI programme of events to mark the 80th Anniversary of the end of the war the event will include entertainment and an exhibition. \nIt will see members of our Junior Lodge host and exhibition of Second World War Memorabilia and Artefacts. In a wonderful turn of events our young people will be education us on the past and helping to give a real feel for the events of 80 years ago. \nThere will be a children’s corner with crafts and games and for older children and all those kids at heart a Virtual reality simulator where you can experience the fighting conditions of the War. \nMusical entertainment and of course a traditional afternoon tea will remind us of the past – except there will be no rationing at this event! \n

SUMMARY:Remember November
DESCRIPTION:November has a number of national days of Commemoration and Remembrance\, and as we move beyond these most recognisable days the ILOI have set aside November as a full month to Remember. It will provide an annual festival of Remembrance from joyous occasions such as the birthday of King William Prince of Orange to the more somber occasions of Armistice Day where we join with the nation in silence to remember the fallen in war. \nThis year we add to this calendar of commemoration our own thoughts and reflections on those who have died as a result of the Corona Pandemic\, and those in the forefront of the battle against this silent enemy. \nThere are many events in our own history which we would do well to remember such as the 1641 Rebellion and Massacres which our Institution has done much to mark over the decades.

SUMMARY:Commemoration of the Landing of King William
DESCRIPTION:Wyck\, Jan; William III Landing at Brixham\, Torbay\, 5 November 1688; National Maritime Museum; http://www.artuk.org/artworks/william-iii-landing-at-brixham-torbay-5-november-1688-176186\nThe Glorious Fifth – the Fifth of November\nThe Glorious Revolution of 1688\, which shaped our Parliamentary Democratic Constitution and ensured a foundation for the freedoms we still enjoy today began when William Prince of Orange set foot in England on 5 November 1688. \nThe landing has been marked since and this year we will be going online to commemorate the events leading up to Williams successful claim to the throne. While known as the bloodless revolutions and aside from the Battle of Reading there were no real battles in England\, we are well aware of the loss of life and the sacrifices made by his supporters in Ireland. \nThe Glorious 5th November marks not only this Great Deliverance from ‘Popery and Arbitrary Power’ with the creation of a balanced Constitutional monarchy with the place of Parliament established and the path to democracy set; but also the deliverance from the Gunpowder Plot earlier in the century. \nTraditionally Orange Lodges would meet on or close to this date to commemorate the events\, that double deliverance of what was to become our British democracy. With COVID Restrictions we are taking this opportunity to mark this traditional anniversary at home with a commemorative dinner and then a traditional bonfire night.

SUMMARY:Virtual VJ Day
DESCRIPTION:Victory in Japan Day – or VJ Day – was celebrated on 15th August 1945 and it marked the end of World War Two. As an Institution we would encourage lodges bands and members to take time and reflect on the sacrifice\, give thanks for the deliverance and to celebrate the vistory.  \nJust as we did for VE Day a number of months ago we have provided resources for members and the community and links to the national celebrations as we mark this monumental event.  \nThe 15th August 1945 was the moment that the Allies – that is Britain\, the US and other countries that were fighting together – marked victory over Japan. \nVirtual VJ Day
