Swords and knights will clash next month, in Get a Clue Mystery Theater's new production, "Blame of Bones", which opens Dec. 15 at the Masonic Hall in Farmington. Playing off the popular HBO series "Game of Thrones", the play is set in medieval times and opens as a local duchess invites knights of the realm to share all of the grand deeds they have done in her name. "Of course, politics come to the fore, and a murder is committed," said writer Ken Lipka, who is co-director of the Theatrical Combat Network (TCN).

Long-time Farmington area residents Wayne and Mary Turton have been honored by the Farmington Masonic Lodge as they prepare to locate to Village Estates at the Pathways, a Masonic retirement community in Alma. Farmington Lodge #151 and the Order of Eastern Star No. 239 have planted a weeping cherry tree on the southeast corner of the Masonic Hall, which stands at the intersection of Farmington Rd. and Grand River.

Officials are close to securing additional parking on the north side of Grand River, but sticking points remain.
Farmington officials and Farmington Masonic Lodge 151 are close to an agreement that would allow public parking in a lot to the north of the Masonic Hall on Farmington Road. But a few sticking points remain in an agreement City Council members reviewed at a special meeting Tuesday night. City Manager Vince Pastue reviewed the draft, which he said he received from his contacts with the Masons the same day. The Farmington Downtown Development Authority agreed to pay $10,000 to pave and stripe the lot, in exchange for the parking agreement. The Masons will still own the lot, he said. The idea is to offer downtown employees the opportunity to park in the lot, which would move them away from on-street parking and the lot north of Grand River …
