The principal reason for the formation of the Lodge was to establish
and maintain a linkage with Trent College, and to encourage Membership
in order to assist those objectives. Several of its Members have
joined the Trent Association, which was founded in 2004.
The Lodge has appreciated the opportunity
to assist the College with certain projects, most recently the
Arwen Prady memorial seat which was completed and dedicated in
March 2004.
The Fons Vitae Lodge was formed by a combination
of Old Tridents and those with a close association with the school.
There were 25 Founder Members, one of whom D.L. Waller was the
first Master.
