The Master Mason's Association is made up of every Master Mason within the 22nd Masonic District. There are no dues or fees associated with the MMA, except the cost of a delicious breakfast prepared by the host Lodge that month. The MMA's main source of funds is the Masonic Directory, available from Bro Bill Seymour and the proceeds of the breakfasts. The MMA's treasury is used to pay for the Grand Master's Official Visit to the District each year, as well as charitable uses.
Meetings are held every month at 8:00 AM on a rotating basis at each Lodge within the 22nd Masonic District, with District Schools meeting at each location on the 4th Wednesday each month. Schools are devoted to Education on even months and Ritual on odd months. There is no breakfast or school in November and no school in December.
